After 1 hour, 34.4 g (0.74 mol) of acetaldehyde were added a little at a time within a period of 36 hours, and the mixture was slowly heated to 55° C. The mixture was subsequently stirred at room temperature for 48 hours, washed with water, dried and concentrated. The residue was then taken up in methylene chloride, 10.0 g (0.23 mol) of acetaldehyde and a spatula-tip of sodium acetate were added and the mixture was heated under reflux for 8 hours. After 72 hours, a further 10.0 g (0.23 mol) of acetaldehyde were added and the mixture was stirred at room temperature. The mixture was subsequently washed with water, dried and concentrated. The residue was passed through silica gel (eluent: isopropanol:cyclohexane=1:9). This gave 5.0 g (55% of theory) of methyl 2-chloro-3-(2-methyl-2H-1,3,4-dioxazol-5-yl)-4-methylsulfonylbenzoate.
