Reaktionsschritte

An acid chloride was prepared as follows: anhydrous 3-cyclohexenecarboxylic acid (50 g, 0.4 mol) was placed in a 500 mL round-bottom flask and a few drops of N,N-dimethylformamide was added as a catalyst. To this was added dropwise thionyl chloride (58.4 mL, 0.8 mol), diluted with anhydrous toluene (50 mL), at room temperature and the reaction mixture was refluxed for 4 hours. The final product was fractionally distilled to yield 48.8 grams of 3-cyclohexenecarboxylic acid chloride at a yield of 85%.
