Reaction Steps

To a suspension of 3-hydroxybenzaldehyde (1 kg, 8.2 mol) in CH2Cl2 (10 L) was added a solution of bromine (1.3 kg, 8.2 mol) in CH2Cl2 (620 mL) over 1 h. After stirring for about 22 h, the solids were isolated by filtration, washed with CH2Cl2 (4 L), and dried under vacuum to afford of 2-bromo-5-hydroxybenzaldehyde as a tan solid (1.05 kg, 63%).
