Procedure

To a stirred mixture of 2,3-dichloroanisole (73.5 g., 0.414 mole), 4-bromophenylacetyl chloride (105 g., 0.456 mole) and carbon disulfide (300 ml.) is added portionwise aluminum chloride (60.9 g., 0.456 mole) with cooling at 0°-5° C. The reaction mixture is left at 25° C. for 17 hours, then flushed with nitrogen, and the solid residue treated with crushed ice and 12N hydrochloric acid (80 ml.) to give 147.7 g. of 2,3-dichloro-4-(4-bromophenyl)acetylanisole which melts at 163°-164.5° C. after crystallization from benzene:hexane, 1:1.
