Procedure
170 ml of 33 percent hydrobromic acid in glacial acetic acid are added at 20°-25° within 20 minutes to 42.4 g of 4-(benzyloxy)-2'-fluoro-3-methoxybenzophenone (dissolved in 450 ml of methylene chloride). After stirring at 20° for 1.5 hours, the reaction mixture is poured into 750 ml of ice-water; the methylene chloride phase is separated and the aqueous phase is extracted twice more with 200 ml of methylene chloride. The combined methylene chloride phases are washed with 1200 ml of water, dried over sodium sulfate and evaporated. In order to remove the resulting benzyl bromide, the oily residue is treated with hexane and decanted off. There is obtained 2'-fluoro-4-hydroxy-3-methoxybenzophenone as a yellowish oil which can be used directly in the subsequent reaction step.
