Procedure

A synthesis proceeding via four stages can be taken from EP 562 435. 2,4,5-Trichloronitrobenzene is first reacted with an alkali metal fluoride to give 5-chloro-2,4-difluoronitrobenzene. By means of chlorinating denitration the 5-chloro-2,4-difluoronitrobenzene can be converted to 1,3-dichloro-4,6-difluorobenzene. The 1,3-dichloro-4,6-difluorobenzene is nitrated to give 2,6-dichloro-3,5-difluoronitrobenzene. The desired 3,5-difluoroaniline can be prepared from the 2,6-dichloro-3,5-difluoronitrobenzene by reaction with hydrogen with elimination of hydrogen chloride and reduction of the nitro group.
