Procedure

55.5 parts of 4-bromo-3-chloro-5-iodoaniline, 250 parts of phenol, 8 parts of hydroiodic acid (57% strength) and 15 parts of ruthenium-on-charcoal catalyst (5% strength) are reacted with hydrogen under a pressure of 23 to 47 bars and at 145° C., during the course of 2 hours, whilst stirring. After the usual working up, 38 parts of 3-chloro-5-iodo-aniline are obtained. Yield: 90% of theory.
