Reaktionsschritte

To a mixture of 34.9 g (0.26 mol) of AlCl3 and 350 ml of dichloromethane, a solution of 50.9 g (0.22 mol) of 2-bromo-2-methylpropanoyl bromide in 120 ml of dichloromethane was added dropwise, while vigorously stirring, at −10° C. Then, a solution of 40.0 g (0.20 mol) of 1-bromo-3-isopropylbenzene in 70 ml of dichloromethane was added dropwise at this temperature. The resulting mixture was refluxed for 12 h and then poured onto 2000 cm3 of ice. The organic product was extracted with 4×300 ml of dichloromethane. The combined extract was dried over K2CO3 and evaporated to dryness. Fractional distillation gave the title product, b.p. 130-135° C./1.5 mm Hg. Yield 36.2 g (67%).
