Procedure

N-Bromosuccinimide (15.55 g, 87 mmol) was added portionwise to stirred solution of 3-bromo-5′-methyl-2,2′-bithiophene (20.56 g, 79 mmol) in glacial acetic acid (200 mL) containing acetic anhydride (25 mL) at RT. The mixture was stirred and monitored by TLC. After completion (1.5 h) the reaction was diluted with water (200 mL) and the oily phase was taken into ether and separated. The aqueous phase was extracted with ether. The combined organic phases were washed with 1 M NaOH solution followed by water. Removal of the solvent left a solidifying oil, which was sonicated in methanol yielding after filtration and drying 3,5-dibromo-5′-methyl-2,2′-bithiophene as off-white solid (single spot on TLC). Yield: 20.6 g (77%). 1H NMR (600 MHz, CD2Cl2) ppm 7.13 (d, J=3.6 Hz, 1H), 6.97 (s, 1H), 6.74-6.72 (m, 1H), 2.48-2.47 (m, 3H)
