Reaction Steps

To a solution of 3-nitro-4-(trifluoromethyl)aniline (31.0 g, 150.4 mmol) in HOAc (200 mL) was added bromine (9.3 mL, 180.5 mmol) at 0° C. under an atmosphere of N2. The cooling bath was removed and the mixture was stirred at 20° C. for 1 h. The solvent was removed in vacuo to afford the crude product 2-bromo-5-nitro-4-(trifluoromethyl)aniline (40.0 g, 93%), which was used directly in the next step.
