Procedure

N-Chlorosuccinimide (14 g) in glacial acetic acid (150 ml) was added to 2,3-dimethylnaphthalene (15.6 g) in refluxing glacial acetic acid (150 ml) over 30 min. The solution was evaporated to dryness and the residue was washed with ether (3 × 100 ml) and insoluble material discarded. The ether washings were evaporated and the residue recrystallised from ethanol to give 1-chloro-2,3-dimethylnaphthalene (1) m.p. 55°.
