Reaktionsschritte

3.3 ml of a 30% sodium methylate solution in methanol is added in drops to 1.77 ml of furan-2-yl-methanethiol in 18 ml of anhydrous acetonitrile at 0° C. After 5 minutes, the drop-by-drop addition of 2.6 ml of 1-bromo-3-chloropropane is carried out. Then, the reaction solution is allowed to stir for 5 hours at room temperature. For working-up, the batch is diluted with ethyl acetate, washed with water and common salt solution, dried on magnesium sulfate and concentrated by evaporation in a vacuum. Chromatography of the crude product on silica gel with a hexane-ethyl acetate gradient yields 1.1 g of 2-(3-chloropropylthiomethyl)-furan as an oil.
