Reaktionsschritte

4′-Methyl-2-cyanobiphenyl (105 g, 0.54 mol) and sodium bromate (12.3 g, 0.082 mol) were added to monochlorobenzene (300 g) and the internal temperature was set for 65° C. 2,2′-Azobis(2-methylbutyronitrile) (2.0 g, 0.010 mol) was added, bromine (45.6 g, 0.29 mol) was added dropwise over 5 hr and the reaction mixture was maintained at this temperature for 1 hr. The resulting inorganic salt was filtered off and the reaction mixture was cooled to 5° C. The precipitated crystals were collected by filtration to give 4′-bromomethyl-2-cyanobiphenyl (110 g, 0.405 mol). The yield was 75%.
