Reaktionsschritte

Heat a solution of 5-fluoro-2-nitro-benzaldehyde (10 g, 59.17 mmol), butanol (20 mL, 219 mmol) and p-toluenesulfonic acid (600 mg, 3.15 mmol) in toluene (200 mL) at reflux for 2 hours in a flask equipped with a Dean-Stark trap. Cool the reaction mixture to room temperature, dilute with ethyl acetate (400 mL), and wash sequentially with saturated aqueous sodium bicarbonate (300 mL×3) and saturated aqueous sodium chloride (300 mL×2). Dry the organic phase over sodium sulfate and concentrate under reduced pressure to provide the desired compound as a pale yellow oil (17 g, 96%).
