Para-bromodimethyl aniline of a high purity at high yields is obtained by the direct bromination of N,N'-dimethyl aniline with bromine in the presence of a solvent. The temperature which prevails during the reaction may be up to the reflux of the solvent used. The solvent consists of at least one halogenated hydrocarbon having the formula RXn wherein: R is a straight or branched aliphatic hydrocarbon having 1 to 12 carbon atoms, X is bromine or chlorine and n is between 1 and 4, with the proviso that when n is 4, the solvent is CCl₄.
通过在溶剂存在下使用
溴直接对N,N'-二甲基
苯胺进行
溴化反应,可以得到高纯度的对
