Procedure
Into a solution of 0.15 g (0.67 mM) of 2-(4-ethoxyphenyl)isovaleric acid in 3 ml of chloroform, 0.24 g (1.35 mM) of N-bromosuccinimide was added, and the mixture was heated for 3 hours in the presence of a catalytic amount of anhydrous aluminum chloride under a reflux condition. The oily substance obtained by condensing the reaction mixture was subjected to silica gel column chromatography while using a 1:3 mixture of ethyl acetate and n-hexane as an eluent, thereby 0.12 g of 2-(3-bromo-4-ethoxyphenyl)isovaleric acid was obtained as a colourless and oily substance (yield: 60%).
