Reaktionsschritte

4-Chlorosaccharin was prepared by the same method as used for the preparation of 4-methylsaccharin using 4.22 g (0.023 mol) of methyl 6-chloroanthranilate in 22 ml of acetic acid and 40 ml of concentrated hydrochloric acid and 1.68 g (0.024 mol) of sodium nitrite in 7 ml of water to prepare the diazonium salt which was added to 1.93 g (0.011 mol) of cupric chloride dihydrate and 6.5 g of sulfur dioxide in 30 ml of acetic acid and 5 ml of water. The resulting methyl 2-chlorosulfonyl-6-chlorobenzoate was treated with 150 ml of ammonium hydroxide as described above to afford 3.07 g (62%) of 4-chlorosaccharin as a pale yellow solid, mp 245°-246° C.
