After completion of the addition, the mixture was heated at 40° C. for two hours, thereby obtaining a purple solution, which was cooled and carefully poured into ice-water (0.5 l), stirring vigorously. The separated white solid was filtered, triturated, washed with water, dried over KOH and purified by washing with n-hexane, adding 200 ml of solvent under strong stirring. The mixture was filtered, the solid was discarded and the solvent was evaporated to dryness to obtain 2,4-dichloro-3-methyl-benzenesulfonyl chloride as a crystalline white solid. Yield: 85%.
