A mixture of (3,5-dibromo-4-methyl-phenyl)-methanol (4 g, 14.288 mmol), 60% NaH (690 mg, 28.75 mmol) and THF (72 mL) was heated to 70° C. in a sealed tube for 15 minutes. The reaction was cooled, bromoethane (3.2 mL, 42.86 mmol) was added and the reaction continued heating at 70° C. for 6 h. The reaction was cooled, poured onto water, extracted with EtOAc (×3). The organics were washed with water, brine and dried (Na2SO4). Chromatography (Hexanes/EtOAc) afforded 1,3-dibromo-5-ethoxymethyl-2-methyl-benzene (2.187 g) as a colourless oil. 1H NMR (400 MHz, d6-DMSO) δ: 1.15 (t, 3H), 2.48 (s, 3H), 3.46 (q, 2H), 4.41 (s, 2H), 7.57 (s, 2H) ppm.
