Reaction Steps

Chlorine gas was passed into a solution of 3-tert-butyl-4-hydroxybenzaldehyde (2.5 gm) in acetic acid (20 ml) for 1 hour. The solution was poured into water and the product collected. Recrystallisation from aqueous ethanol gave 3-tert-butyl-5-chloro-4-hydroxybenzaldehyde m.p. 123° C.
