Procedure

149.2 g (0.77 mol) of 2-methyl-1-[4-(methylthio)-phenyl]-propan-1-one, prepared by acylating thioanisol (as is described in EP-A-3002), are dissolved in 770 ml of methylene chloride. 0.2 ml of chlorosulfonic acid and 123.0 g (0.77 mol) of bromine are added dropwise slowly to this solution, with cooling, at room temperature. After stirring overnight, the solution is concentrated and is then reacted further as described below.
