Reaction Steps

A solution of bromine (11 g, 0.081 mol) in dichloromethane (50 mL) was slowly added to a solution of 3-(2-chloro-6-fluoro-phenyl)-propionaldehyde (15 g, 0.081 mol) in dichloromethane (250 mL) at 0° C. The mixture was stirred overnight at room temperature and then the solvent was removed to give the crude product which was used directly in the next step.
