Procedure

4.0 g of 1-(2-chlorophenyl)-2-methoxyethylene are added dropwise within 20 minutes to 9.55 g of 5-nitrofurfurol in 12 cc of dry benzene at room temperature after the addition of one drop of diethyl ether/trifluoroborane. The mixture is stirred at 35°-40° for 1 hour and is then successively washed with a 5% aqueous sodium acetate solution and water, the benzene solution is dried over magnesium sulphate and concentrated by evaporation. The residue is taken up in 3 cc of concentrated hydrochloric acid, 17 cc of water and 120 cc of glacial acetic acid, and the mixture is stirred at 80°-85° for 3 hours. The mixture is concentrated in a vacuum, and, after cooling, the title compound is obtained as yellow crystals having a M.P. of 148°-151°.
