Procedure

A mixture of 3-chloro-2-methyl[1,1'-biphenyl] (10.4 grams, 0.051 mole) and N-bromosuccinimide (9.2 grams, 0.052 mole) in carbon tetrachloride (150 ml) was heated and irradiated with an infrared lamp for two hours. The mixture was cooled and filtered. The filtrate was evaporated under reduced pressure to give a quantitative yield of 2-bromomethyl-3-chloro[1,1'-biphenyl] as a yellow oil.
