Reaktionsschritte

To 3,5-dibromobenzylbromide (Lancaster) (20 g, 0.061 mole) in H2O (27 mL) and glacial acetic acid (27 mL) was added hexamethylenetetramine (Aldrich). The reaction mixture was heated at reflux for 2 hours. Concentrated HCl (22 mL) was then added and the refluxing was continued for 30 minutes. After cooling to room temperature, the reaction mixture was poured into H2O (230 mL) and stirred for 10 minutes. The resulting precipitate was filtered, washed with H2O and dried to yield 3,5-dibromobenzaldehyde (11.45 g) as a white solid. MS and NMR were consistent with the desired structure.
