Reaction Steps

N-Bromosuccinimide (6.27 g, 0.035 mole), m-toluenesulfonyl chloride (6.72 g, 0.035 mole), and benzoyl peroxide (0.67 g, 0.0019 mole) were combined in CCl4 (40 mL) and heated at reflux 2 h. The reaction mixture was filtered and washed with CCl4. The filtrate was concentrated to give m-bromomethylbenzenesulfonyl chloride, 9.74 g, as a viscous yellow oil.
