Reaktionsschritte

To a mixture of 32 g of 4,6-dichlorotoluene and 0.3 g of anhydrous FeCl3, add, with stirring, 10 g of bromine in 1 g portions while maintaining a temperature of 20°-25° C. Add thereto a solution of 22 g of bromine in 100 mL of CCl4 slowly while maintaining a temperature of 20°-25° C. After the addition of bromine is complete, stir the mixture so formed for 15 min, and dilute the reaction mixture with 200 mL of CH2Cl2, and wash the organic solution with 5% aqueous sodium thiosulfate. Dry the organic layer over anhydrous K2CO3, filter, and evaporate to a residue. Recrystallize the residue from CH3CN to give 32 g of 2-bromo-4,6-dichlorotoluene, mp 84°-5° C.
