Bromine (3.5 ml, 68.7 mmol) was added, and after 15 min a cold solution of 1-[2-methoxy-4-(methylthio)phenyl]ethanone in dioxane (140 ml) was added dropwise during 20 min. The reaction mixture was stirred at 0° C. for 2.5 h. Na2SO3 (10 g dissolved in 50 ml water) was added and after 10 min the reaction mixture was acidified with an aqueous HCl (10%). The aqueous phase was extracted with EtOAc and the combined organic phases were dried (Na2SO4) and evaporated under reduced pressure to give an oil (5.7 g) of the title compound. Some sulfoxide and sulfonyl compound are also observed. 1H-NMR (400 MHz, MeOH): δ 7.77 (1H, d, J 8.4 Hz), δ 6.91 (1H, s), δ 6.84 (1H, dd, J1 8.0 Hz, J2 1.2 Hz), δ 3.96 (3H, s), δ 2.53 (3H, s).
