Reaktionsschritte

A suspension of 4bromo-2-methylbenzoic acid (4.9 g, 22.8 mmol) in dichioromethane containing a few drops of N,N-dimethylformamde was treated dropwise under nitrogen with oxalyl chloride (2.4 mL, 27.5 mol). After gas evolution subsided, the reaction mixture was refluxed for an additional 15 minutes and then evaporated to dryness in vacuo to provide the crude 4-bromo-2-methylbenzoyl chloride.
