Reaktionsschritte

To a solution of 3-bromo-4-methylbenzoic acid (1.0 equiv.) and AIBN (0.05 equiv.) in trifluorotoluene (0.28 M) was added NBS (1.1 equiv.). The mixture was heated at 90° C. overnight. The reaction mixture was partitioned between EtOAc and H2O. The organic layer was washed with NaCl(sat.), dried over MgSO4, filtered, concentrated to yield 3-bromo-4-(bromomethyl)benzoic acid in 60% yield. LC/MS (m/z)=294.8 (MH+), Rt=0.80 min.
