To a suspension of 2-bromo-4-methylbenzoic acid (15.0 g, 69.8 mmol) in toluene (60 mL), thionyl chloride (10.3 mL) and DMF (0.10 mL) were added and stirred at 50° C. for 3 h. After cooling to room temperature, the excess thionyl chloride was removed in vacuo. The residue was dissolved in toluene (50 mL), and the mixture was added to the solution of ammonia (25%, 60 mL). The white precipitate was filtered over Celite and dried in vacuo to afford 2-bromo-4-methylbenzamide (14.8 g, 99%).
