Reaktionsschritte

To a solution of 38.5 g (0.225 mol) of 4-bromotoluene in 450 mL of THF, 300 mL (0.450 mol) of 1.5 M tBuLi in pentane was added dropwise with vigorous stirring for 2 hr at −80° C. This mixture was slowly warmed to room temperature and additionally stirred at this temperature for 30 min. To this mixture 52.0 g (0.23 mol) of 3-bromo-N,N-dimethylbenzamide was added at 0° C., and then this mixture was stirred for 12 hr at room temperature. Later, 300 mL of water was added, organic solvent was evaporated using a rotary evaporator. The product was extracted with 2×200 mL of dichloromethane. The combined organic extracts were evaporated to dryness, and the residue was dried in vacuum. This procedure gave 51.3 g (83%) of 40 which was further used without additional purification.
