Abstract
The reaction of 1,4‐di‐tert.butylbenzene in carbon tetrachloride with bromine and with iron as catalyst yields 1,4‐di‐tert.butyl‐2‐bromobenzene, 1‐tert.butyl‐3‐bromobenzene, 1‐tert.butyl‐4‐bromobenzene, and 1‐tert.butyl‐3,4‐dibromobenzene. Besides these compounds, 1‐tert.butyl‐2,4‐dibromobenzene and 1‐tert.‐butyl‐2,5‐dibromobenzene were also synthesized in an unambiguous way.Keywords
