Reaktionsschritte

Sodium hydride (1.45 g, 36 mmol) and diethyl carbonate (2.14 g, 18 mmol) were suspended in 10 ml of THF. 1-(2-Chlorophenyl)ethanone (1.4 g, 9 mmol) was gradually added into the reaction flask, maintaining the reaction mixture temperature at 40° C. for 2 h. Then 1 mL of ethanol was added thereto and heated under reflux conditions for 4 h. After cooling, 1 mL of ethanol was added and the mixture was poured onto ice water, and extracted with ether. Ether extracts are combined, washed with water, dried with anhydrous magnesium sulfate, and evaporated. The resulting oil is purified by flash column chromatography (PE/EA=50/1) to afford the title compound (680 mg, 34%) as a yellow oil. 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3): δ 1.24 (3H, t, J=6.8 Hz), 4.03 (2H, s), 4.19 (2H, q, J=6.8 Hz), 7.31-7.36 (2H, m), 7.42-7.45 (2H, m). [M+H] Calc'd for C11H11ClO3, 227; Found, 227.
