Reaktionsschritte

23.43 ml of 2-chlorotoluene and 26.6 g of 3-chloropropionyl chloride are mixed in 25 ml of carbon sulfide and 32 g of AlCl3 in 125 ml of carbon sulfide are added over 45 minutes. After stirring for 3 hours at RT, the solvent is evaporated and then 1 liter of water is added. The reaction medium is extracted with ether and then with benzene, and then the organic phase is washed with a saturated Na2CO3 solution and then with water. It is dried over Na2SO4 and then the residue is chromatographed on a silica column, eluting with an AcOEt/cyclohexane (5/95; v/v) mixture. 27.25 g of the expected compound are obtained.
