Reaction Steps

First, 50 g (0.61 mol) of sodium acetate and 41 g (0.14 mol) of 1,1-dibromo-3,3,3-trifluoroacetone were mixed with 500 ml of water, and the mixture was stirred at 80° C. for 30 minutes and then cooled to 0° C. Then, 45 g (0.14 mol) of 4-bromo-2-fluoro-5-isopropoxyphenylhydrazine hydrochloride was added at 10° C. or lower, and the mixture was stirred at 10° C. or lower for 3 hours. The precipitated crystals were collected by filtration and dried, which afforded 35 g (94.3 mmol) of 3,3,3-trifluoro-2-oxopropanal 1-(4-bromo-2-fluoro-5-isopropoxyphenylhydrazone).
