A solution of 5-chloro-m-xylene (59.3 g) and dibenzoyl peroxide (5.0 g) in 1.13 L of benzene was heated at reflux. N-Bromosuccinimide (82.2 g) was added in portions over 15 minutes. Heating was continued for an additional 20 minutes until a negative potassium iodide reaction was observed. The reaction mixture was cooled, evaporated and then titurated with hexane (500 ml). The precipitated succinimide was removed by filtration and washed with additional hexane. Concentration afforded 101 g of crude 3-chloro-5-methylbenzyl bromide.
