Abstract
A process for the preparation of 4-chloromethylbenzaldehyde, 4-bromomethylbenzaldehyde and 4-iodomethylbenzaldehyde is disclosed. The desired 4-halomethylbenzaldehyde is prepared by reacting 4-hydroxymethylbenzaldehyde with the appropriate gaseous hydrogen halide and/or with the appropriate aqueous hydrohalic acid. The 4-halomethylbenzaldehydes produced by the disclosed process are useful as raw materials for pharmaceuticals and serve as starting materials for the preparation of conductive organic compounds.
