Reaction Steps

A solution of p-tolyl phenylsulphone (20 g) in refluxing CCl4 (400 ml) containing dibenzoyl peroxide (0.4 g) was treated with N-bromosuccinimide (15.3 g) in portions rapidly. The mixture was heated under reflux for 30 min., filtered whilst hot and the filtrate allowed to cool. Evaporation gave the title compound (26.8 g), m.p. (103°-104°.
