Reaktionsschritte

A suspension of N-(3,4-dichlorostyrylsulfonyl)-3,4-dimethoxybenzamide (8.3 g., 0.02 mole) in 100 ml. of dry benzene is stirred and refluxed with phosphorus pentachloride (4.6 g., 0.022 mole) for a period of 1.5 hr. providing a clear solution which is concentrated under reduced pressure. Benzene is added to the residue and evaporated. The benzene treatment is repeated several times and the residue thus obtained triturated with isopropyl ether provides a quantitative yield of N-(3,4-dichlorostyrylsulfonyl)-3,4-dimethoxybenzimidoyl chloride, m.p. 120°-125° C.
