Reaktionsschritte

A mixture of 4-chloro-1-fluoro-2-nitrobenzene 1.01 g, 2-isopropylimidazole 634 mg, N,N-diisopropylethylamine, 1.46 mL and acetonitrile 12 mL was heated under reflux for 15 hours. The solvent was distilled off and water was added to the residue which was then rendred acidic with diluted hydrochloric acid. After washing the same with diethyl ether, the aqueous layer was rendered alkaline with aqueous sodium hydroxide solution and extracted twice with chloroform. The organic layer was washed with water, dried over magnesium sulfate, and removed of the solvent by distillation to provide 0.98 g of the title compound.
