Reaktionsschritte

Potassium nitrate (578 mg, 5.71 mmol) was dissolved in concentrated sulfuric acid (4.5 mL) and added dropwise to a stirred solution of 2,3-dichlorobenzaldehyde (1.0 g, 5.71 mmol) at room temperature. The mixture was left without stirring for 10 days at room temperature. Material that had crystallized out of the reaction mixture was collected by filtration to afford 2,3-dichloro-6-nitrobenzaldehyde (196MBT36, 433 mg, 34%) as yellow needles. Regioselectivity was confirmed by the Bayer-Drewson indigo synthesis.
