Procedure

7-Amino-1-tetralone (457 mg, 2.83 mmol) was dissolved in acetic acid (8 mL) and treated with bromine (150 mL, 2.91 mmol) dropwise. After 10 min., more bromine (17 mL) was added. Then the solvent was evaporated off to give a light brown solid. It was partitioned between Na2CO3 solution and EtOAc. From the organic phase was obtained a semi-solid (696 mg). It was dissolved in CHCl3 and flash chromatographed over silica gel (50 g) eluding with EtOAc/hexane (1:4) to afford a yellow solid (320 mg, 47% yield): mp 93-96° C.
