Procedure
(2-Fluoro-5-methoxybenzyl)-dimethylamine (1.51 g, 8.24 mmol) was heated to reflux in 30% hydrogen bromide/acetic acid (10 mL) for 17 h. The cooled reaction mixture was triturated and decanted with successive portions of diethyl ether (4×), then triturated with diethyl ether overnight. The solid was collected by filtration, washed with ether and dried to give 3-dimethylaminomethyl-4-fluorophenol hydrobromide (1.43 g, 69%) as a tan solid.
