Bromine → HCID 13556593, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

137 g (0.47 mole) of 1-(4-chlorophenylthio)-5-chloro-3,3-dimethyl-2-pentanone are dissolved in 1,000 ml of chloroform. 75.3 g (0.47 mole) of bromine are added dropwise at room temperature such that the solution is always decolorized. The reaction mixture is then subsequently stirred at room temperature for 1 hour and is concentrated by distilling off the solvent. 172.7 g (99.3% of theory) of 1-bromo-1-(4-chlorophenylthio)-5-chloro-3,3-dimethyl-2-pentanone of refractive index nD20 1.5796 are obtained. ##STR94##
