Hello
I am Priya Joshi, a Ph.D student. I am having difficulty in bromination of
Methyl-2,4-dimethoxyphenylacetate. I want the bromination at the alpha
position (i.e. at benzylic position).But when I tried NBS, bromination
occurred at the Benzene ring.

Does anybody know How to bring about benzylic bromination without ring
bromination.

Thanks

Priya Joshi
