Reaktionsschritte

To the stirred solution of 5.6 g p-chloroaniline in 150 ml of methylene chloride is added dropwise 4.7 ml of t-butyl hypochlorite in 20 ml of methylene chloride at -65°. After ten minutes, the solution of 5.75 g of 2-ethylmercaptobutyrolactone in 20 ml of methylene chloride is added dropwise and the temperature held at -65° for 2 hours. Then the solution of 6.1 ml of triethylamine in 20 ml of methylene chloride is added dropwise and the mixture is allowed to warm up to room temperature. 50 ml of water are added with stirring and the precipitate filtered off, to yield the 5-chloro-3-(2-hydroxyethyl)-3-ethylmercapto-2-oxindole melting at 132°-135°.
