Reaction Steps
A mixture of 2-chloro-6-methyl-benzoic acid methyl ester (1.84 g, 10 mmol), N-bromosuccinamide (1.95 g, 11 mmol), and benzoyl peroxide (0.056 g, 0.21 mmol) in carbon tetrachloride (20 mL) was heated at reflux until the starting materials were mostly consumed. Workup afforded 2-bromomethyl-6-chloro-benzoic acid methyl ester. The material was used without further purification.
