Reaktionsschritte

To a solution of 3-chloro-4-(trifluoromethyl)aniline (450 mg, 2.30 mmol) and toluene 4-sulfonic acid (1.19 g, 6.92 mmol) in CH3CN (10 mL) was added a solution of potassium iodide (955 mg, 5.76 mmol) and sodium nitrite (318 mg, 4.61 mmol) in water (1.8 mL) over 15 min at 10° C., then after 20 min the reaction mixture was poured onto water, neutralized with sat. aq. NaHCO3 solution, treated with 2 M aq. sodium thiosulfate solution (6 mL), and extracted with EtOAc. The organic layer was dried (MgSO4), filtered, and evaporated to afford the title compound (517 mg) as a light brown oil, which was directly used in the next step.
