Reaktionsschritte

A solution of 7.31 g of Methyl 4'-methylbiphenyl-3-carboxylate, 5.75 g of N-bromosuccinimide, 0.125 g of azo(bisisobutyronitrile), and 500 mL of carbon tetrachloride was refluxed for 3 hours. After cooling to room temperature the resulting suspension was filtered and then concentrated in vacuo to provide 9.90 g of crude methyl 4'-bromomethylbiphenyl-3-carboxylate which was used in a subsequent reaction without further purification; NMR (200 MHz, CDCl3): δ8.28 (s, 1H); 8.05 (d, 1H); 7.79 (d, 1H); 7.67-7.48 (m, 5H); 4.55 (s, 2H); 3.98 (s, 3H).
