Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

A solution of bromine (16.0 g., 0.1 m.) in 100 ml. of chloroform is added dropwise to a stirred solution of 39.5 g. (0.1 m.) of 2-chloro-3,4-dibenzyloxybutyrophenone and 0.2 g. of dibenzoyl peroxide in 650 ml. of chloroform. After stirring for 30 minutes at 25°C., the reaction mixture is washed with water, aqueous saturated sodium bicarbonate and again with water. The chloroform solution is dried and concentrated in vacuo to leave a residue of α-bromo-2-chloro-3,4-dibenzyloxybutyrophenone.
