Reaktionsschritte

Bromine in a quantity of 10.2 ml (0.2 mol) is added dropwise to a mixture of 37.8 g 3.4-dichloroacetophenone and approx. 1.0 g anhydrous AlCl3 in 600 ml dry diethylether while stirring and cooling in ice. After stirring for 0.5 hr at 0° C. and 1.5 hr at room temperature, 30 ml water are added slowly. The organic phase is separated, washed twice with water, dried and evaporated to dryness. A small amount of petroleum ether (40-60) is added to the residue and the mixture is stirred at approx. 0° C. The desired 3.4-dichlorophenacylbromide is obtained as a crystalline material in a yield of 39.8 g (74%); melting point 55°-58° C.; TLC (CH2Cl2)=0.5.
