Reaktionsschritte

To a stirred solution of 5-[2-chloro-4-(trifluoromethyl)phenoxy]-2-nitrobenzoyl chloride (3.8 g, 0.01 mole) in acetone (10 ml) was successively added diethyl DL malate (1.9 g, 0.01 mole) in acetone (10 ml) and triethylamine (1.01 g, 0.01 mole) in acetone (5 ml). A white precipitate quickly formed. The reaction was heated to reflux for 24 hours. Upon cooling, the reaction was poured in water (75 ml) and extracted twice with methylene chloride (25 ml @). The combined organic extracts were successively washed with 5% sodium hydroxide and brine solutions. The dried solution was stripped of solvent to give 3.56 g of an amber oil.
