Reaction Steps

This compound was prepared in a manner similar to Example 1 Step F using 2,4-dichloro-5-nitrotoluene (62.0 g, 0.3 mole), N-bromosuccinimide (160.2 g, 0.9 mole), benzoyl peroxide (2.0 g) and carbon tetrachloride (500 ml) to yield (2,4-dichloro-5-nitrophenyl)methyl bromide. The NMR spectrum was consistent with the proposed structure.
