Mounting concern among forensic examiners regarding the emergence of positional isomers as technically legal alternatives to scheduled benzodiazepines has encouraged the preemptive synthesis of analogues as standards. Recently, flubromazepam was identified by the Drug Enforcement Administration for future scheduling, and subsequently, 9 of the 12 possible flubromazepam isomers were synthesized. However, the three (6,X′)-isomers proved inaccessible via that approach. Herein, through a redesigned synthetic approach, the remaining three isomers were obtained, thus completing the set and enabling future forensic analysis.
