Reaktionsschritte

3,4,5-Trichloro-trifluoromethylbenzene (0.681 g, 2.73 mmol), lithium fluoride (7.1 mg, 0.273 mmol) and N-methylpyrrolidone (1.8 ml) are mixed in an autoclave. The autoclave is cooled to −95° C. and then ammonia (1.3 g, 76.4 mmol) is added. The autoclave is then heated at 250° C. and with stirring for 4 h and is subsequently allowed to return to room temperature. The reaction product is extracted by washing with water and with dichloromethane and then the organic phase is evaporated, after having been dried. 0.453 g (1.97 mmol) of 2,6-dichloro-4-trifluoromethylaniline is obtained with a degree of conversion of the 3,4,5-trichloro-trifluoromethylbenzene of 97%, a ratio equal to 83/17 for the selectivity for 2,6-dlchloro-para-trifluoromethylaniline with respect to 2,6-dichloro-meta-trifluoromethylaniline and an 87% yield of 2,6-dichloro-para-trifluoromethylaniline.
