Vorschrift

A mixture of 2-[4-methyl-3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]-1,3-benzoxazole (600 mg, 2.2 mmol), n-bromosuccinimide (579 mg, 3.25 mmol), benzoyl peroxide (26 mg, 0.11 mmol) in carbon tetrachloride (15 mL) was refluxed for 3 h and then cooled to rt. The white precipitate was filtered and the filtrate was concentrated to dryness. The crude was purified by flash chromatography on silica gel eluting with EtOAc:hexanes (1:1) to afford 2-[4-(bromomethyl)-3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]-1,3-benzoxazole.
