Reaction Steps

Furthermore, it is known from the U.S. Pat. No. 3,449,443 that on reaction of 2-chlorophenol with bromine chloride in carbon tetrachloride at 0° C. there is formed, besides 74% of theory of 2-bromo-6-chlorophenol, only 22% of theory of 2-chloro-4-bromophenol; and at 23° to 26° C. there is formed, besides 61.7% of theory of 2-bromo-6-chlorophenol, only 26.3% of theory of 2-chloro-4-bromophenol.
