Reaktionsschritte

Acetyl chloride (17 ml) is slowly dropped into a stirred mixture of 1-bromo-2,5-difluorobenzene (30 g) and aluminium trichloride (53 g) heated at 60° C. and kept under argon. The reaction mixture is then stirred 90 minutes at 95° C. The mixture is cooled at 40° C. and carefully poured into crushed ice (400 g) and concentrated hydrochloric acid (35 ml). The resulting mixture is stirred a few minutes and then extracted with ethyl ether (2×250 ml). The ethereal solution is washed to neutral with brine, dried over sodium sulfate and the solvent is evaporated. The distillation of the oily residue gives 4'-bromo-2 ',5'-difluoroacetophenone (21.2 g) b.p. (0.05 mm)=60° C.
