0.4 g of anhydrous aluminium chloride was added to 20 g of 2,3-dimethylphenyl chloroformate and the mixture was heated at 200° C. for 4.5 hours at normal pressure. The reaction mixture was then cooled and worked up as described in Example 1. 2,3-Dimethylchlorobenzene was obtained in a yield of 18%, which is considerable despite the unfavourable substitution pattern.
