1,3,5-Tri-t-butylbenzene (150 g, 0.6 mol) was dissolved in 600 mL of carbon tetrachloride in a three-neck flask painted black to avoid light; The flask was equipped with an overhead stirrer, a thermometer, and an addition funnel under argon. Ferric chloride (3.0 g, 0.018 mol) was added and the solution was cooled to 0° C. A solution of bromine (120 g, 0.75 mol) dissolved in 200 mL of carbon tetrachloride was then added over a 2-hour period. The solution was stirred for an additional 1 hour at 0° C. and quenched with ice water. The layers were separated and the organics washed with 10% sodium hydroxide solution. The solution was then washed with salt brine and dried over magnesium sulfate. The solvent was removed under vacuum and the product was distilled through a 2-ft (60-cm) column under vacuum two times. The fractions boiling at 90°-110° C. at 0.4 mm Hg were combined and recrystallized from heptane to give 100 g of pure 3,5-di-t-butylbromobenzene (60% yield).
