Procedure

To a solution of 2,2,4,4-tetramethyl-6-chromanoic acid (200 mg, 0.85 mmol) in 0.5 ml of AcOH was added Br2 (0.07 ml, 1.28 mmol). The resulting dark-orange solution was stirred at room temperature for overnight. The excess bromine was removed under reduced pressure. Then the solution was poured into 5 ml of water and extracted with ethyl acetate (3×3 ml). The combined ethyl acetate layers were further washed with NaHCO3 (sat.), brine and dried over MgSO4. After concentration, the residue was purified by column chromatography (silica gel, ethyl acetate/hexane 1/3) to yield the desired product (170 mg, as white solids.
