Reaktionsschritte

N-Bromosuccinimide (10.7 g) and azodiisobutyronitrile (catalytic) were added to a solution of methyl 2-ethylbenzoate (10 g) in carbon tetrachloride (50 ml), and the resulting mixture was heated at 80° C. for 6 hours under reflux. After cooling, the reaction mixture was filtered and the filtrate was concentrated to give methyl 2-(1-bromoethyl)benzoate (12 g), almost pure by GC and NMR, as a yellow oil.
