Procedure

To a stirred solution of 1,3 Cyclohexandione (10 g, 89 mmol) in dichloromethane (22 mL) at 0° C. was added a solution of bromine (3.8 mL, 89 mmol) in dichloromethane (3 mL) over a period of 10 minutes. The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 1.5 hours. The reaction mixture was filtered and the residue washed with hexane (200 mL). The residue was taken into water (75 mL) and heated at 80° C. for 30 minutes. It was cooled to room temperature, filtered and dried under reduced pressure to give the desired product (14 g, 82%) as a solid. ESMS [M+H]: 191.
