Procedure

To a mixture of sulphuric acid (40 ml) and sodium nitrate (2.66 g, 31.3 mM) at 0°-5° C. was added 3-bromo-4-chlorobenzaldehyde (6.25 g, 28.5 mM). The resulting mixture was stirred at room temperature for 7 h and then diluted with ice water (300 ml). The precipitated solids were filtered, washed with water and dried to give a powder. Recrystallization of this material from the mixture of isopropanol and water (2:1) provided the title 2-nitrobenzaldehyde 1f (3.6 g, 51.5%) as a light yellow powder, m.p. 81°-82° C.
