(2-Amino-5-bromo-4-chlorophenyl)methanol → 2-Amino-5-bromo-4-chlorobenzaldehyde

Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of (2-amino-5-bromo-4-chlorophenyl)methanol (6 g, 25.5 mmol) and manganese(IV) oxide (15.5 g, 0.178 mol) in dichloromethane (100 mL) was stirred at room temperature overnight. The solid was filtered off, and the filtrate was concentrated to give the title compound as a light yellow solid (5 g, 81%). MS (ES+) C7H5BrClNO requires: 233, 235, found: 234, 236 [M+H]+.
