Chloroacetonitrile (3.8 ml) and then aluminium trichloride (7.34 g) were added and the mixture was stirred and heated under reflux overnight. The mixture was cooled to 20° and hydrochloric acid (2M, 100 ml) added. The mixture was heated at 100° for 30 minutes, then cooled to 20° and adjusted to pH 3 to 4 with aqueous sodium hydroxide (5M, 50 ml). The mixture was extracted with dichloromethane (2×400 ml) and the combined extracts were dried over magnesium sulphate. The solvent was removed by evaporation under reduced pressure and the residue purified by flash chromatography on a silica gel column eluted with dichloromethane to give 2-chloro-2'-(methylamino)acetophenone, m.p. 65°-68°.
