(outside temperature) for 2 hours. The mixture was allowed to cool, poured into 80 ml of water, and extracted with chloroform. The extract (organic layer separated) was concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was subjected to column chromatography on silica gel. The product was eluted with benzene to give 5.3 g of 2-[(E)-4-chloro-2-butenyloxy]-5-nitrobenzaldehyde. (mp. 65°-66° C.).
