2-chloro-1-fluoro-3-methylbenzene

Conditions: temp:0.00; pressure:0.00; stir:; See reaction.notes.procedure_details.

Procedure: The general procedure was followed using a mixture of 1-(2-propenyl)-2-chloro-2,3,3-trifluorocyclobutane and 1-methyl-1-vinyl-2-chloro-2,3,3-trifluorocyclobutane as the liquid feed at a flow rate of 1 ml/hr. Nitrogen gas was used as the inert carrier. The reactor was charged with 3 g of AL-0104 (tableted activated alumina containing 99% Al2O3). At 400° C. the yield of the produced aromatic products was 12% combined yield of 1-methyl-2,3-difluorobenzene and 1-methyl-3,4-difluorobenzene and a combined yield of 88% of 1-methyl-2-chloro-3-fluorobenzene and 1-methyl-3-chloro-4-fluorobenzene. At 400° C.
