2-Methylthiophene Production

By adding The carbon tetrachloride, o-nitro-toluene and azobisisobutyronitrile in aqueous solution into reaction tank, stirring heated, dropping bromine in carbon tetrachloride solution, then keep dropping back to finish and continue to return for 5-6h, at last ,bromide o-nitro benzyl bromide is generated.
