Reaction Steps

90.4 g (0.63 mol) 2-chloro-6-methylphenol are brought to reaction with 149.4 g (0.765 mol) 3,4-dichlorobenzylchloride and 2.4 g water-free, finely mortared ZnCL2 without solvent. After stirring 5-6 h at 60° C. the reaction mixture is subsequently worked up by washing three times, each with 100 ml water.
