Reaktionsschritte

4-(Dimethylamino)butanol (88.5g) was added dropwise at 0° C. over 2 hours to stirred thionyl chloride (93.4 g) then the mixture was stirred at ambient temperature for 1 hour and poured into ethanol (500 ml). The stirred solution was heated under reflux for 10 minutes, then the solvent was removed in vacuo. The solid residue crystallised from ethanol as a white solid which was collected by filtration, washed with ethanol, and dried in vacuo at ambient temperature for 24 hours to give 1-chloro-4-(dimethylamino)butane hydrochloride as a white solid (115 g), m.p. 100°-105° C.
