AIBN (79 mg) was added to a stirred suspension of methyl 3-bromo-4-methylbenzoate (11.0 g, 48.0 mmol) and NBS (10.3 g, 57.6 mmol) in CCl4 (400 mL), and the resultant mixture was heated to reflux for 2 h. After cooling to room temperature, the mixture was diluted with hexanes (200 mL) before it was filtered and concentrated to give 14.7 g (crude yield 100%) of methyl 3-bromo-4-(bromomethyl)benzoate.
