Reaktionsschritte

To a stirred slurry of methyl 2-iodo-benzoate (5.0 g, 0.019 mol) and N-bromosuccinimide (3.74 g, 0.021 mol) in acetic acid (10 mL) was added concentrated H2SO4 (10 mL) dropwise, keeping the temperature at 20-40° C. The mixture was stirred at room temperature for 88 hours and then heated at 50° C. for 4 hours. The mixture was cooled to 10° C., treated with 40 g of ice water, and extracted with 50 mL of CH2Cl2. The organic phase was washed in succession with 2×50 mL 5% NaHCO3, 50 mL 10% Na2S2O3, 50 mL water, and concentrated to colorless oil. The residue was purified by column chromatography (silica gel, 10:90 EtOAc:hexane) to provide the title compound. 1H NMR (CDCl3, 400 MHz) δ 7.92 (d, J=4 Hz, 1H), 7.83 (d, J=8 Hz, 1H), 7.27 (dd, J=8, 4 Hz, 1H), 3.92 (s, 3H); MS (DCl/NH3) [M+NH4]+ at 358, [M+NH3.NH4]+ at 375.
