Procedure
A solution of 2-chloro-5-methyl-3,6-difluoroaniline (5.0 g, 28 mmol) in anhydrous methanol (25 mL) is treated with elemental bromine (5.0 g, 3,1 mmol) at room temperature. After stirring for 12 hours, most of the solvent is removed by rotary evaporator and the residue partitioned between EtOAc (250 mL) and water (250 mL). The organic phase is washed with brine (150 mL), dried (MgSO4) and concentrated by rotary evaporator. The crude product is purified using flash chromatography (7% EtOAc/hexanes) to give 2-chloro-4-bromo-5-methyl-3,6-difluoroaniline as a tan solid.
