Reaktionsschritte

3-Chloro-4-fluorophenol (500 mg, 3.4 mmol) was dissolved in acetonitrile (25 mL) and trifluoroacetic acid (500 mL) was added, followed by addition of N-chlorosuccinimide (456 mg, 3.4 mmol). The reaction was stirred at ambient temperature for 3 days and the volatiles were then removed in vacuo. The crude product was purified by chromatography on silica gel with EtOAc:isohexane (1:19, v/v) as eluent to afford of 3,6-dichloro-4-fluorophenol (261 mg, 1.4 mmol, 42%) and 2,3-dichloro-4-fluorophenol (153 mg, 0.8 mmol, 25%).
