Procedure
80 g (0.3 mol) of methyl 2-chloro-3-methyl-4-methylsulfonylbenzoate, 54 g (0.31 mol) of N-bromosuccinimide and 1.5 g of azoisobutyronitrile are stirred at 76° C. for 6 h. The reaction mixture is filtered and freed form the solvent under reduced pressure. Yield: 104 g; m.p. 83-85° C.
Workup
- filtrationThe reaction mixture is filtered
