Reaktionsschritte

A mixture of 1-(2-chloro-4-methylphenyl)ethanone (1.6 g, 9.50 mmol) (preparation 15) and chlorobenzene (60 ml) was prepared at room temperature and N-bromosuccinimide (NBS) (1.86 g, 10.44 mmol) added followed by a catalytic amount of benzoyl peroxide (ca. 1.5 mg, 0.005 mmol), and the resulting mixture was heated to 140-145° C. for 16 h. The mixture was then allowed to cool to room temperature, diluted with toluene (50 ml) and filtered through a celite pad. The pad was washed with toluene (2×50 ml) and the filtrate concentrated under reduced pressure and purified by column chromatography (0-10% EtOAc/Hexanes) to afford 1-(4-(bromomethyl)-2-chlorophenyl)ethanone (1.65 g, 6.65 mmol, 70%) as a yellow oil.
