Reaktionsschritte

To a stirred solution of 3-bromo-4-methylbenzyl alcohol (4.43 g, 22 mMol) in CHCl3 (100 mL) was added MnO2 (15 g, 172 mMol). The reaction was stirred and refluxed (70° C. oil bath) for 18 h, cooled to RT, filtered through Celite®, rinsed with CHCl3, and concentrated to dryness under vacuum. Purification by flash chromatography on silica gel (10% EtOAc, hexanes) gave the title product (3.0 g, 68%). 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3) δ 9.98 (s, 1H), 7.75 (d, J=1.5 Hz, 1 H), 7.73 (d, J=8.1 Hz, 1 H), 7.57 (dd, J=8.1, 1.5 Hz, 1 H), 7.28 (s, 1 H), 2.50 (s, 3 H).
