反応手順

Chloroacetic acid (99.3 mmol, 9.4 g) was added to a suspension of 5-fluoro-2-hydroxy acetophenone (33.1 mmol, 5.1 g) in water (60 mL) containing sodium hydroxide (165.4 mmol, 6.6 g) and the reaction mixture was refluxed for 3.5 hours. The reaction mixture was cooled to room temperature, poured into a separatory funnel and the oily liquid at the bottom of the funnel was discarded. The aqueous top layer was collected, cooled to 0° C. and acidified with conc. HCl. The white precipitate was collected, and air died. The dry solid was crystallized from toluene to obtain (2-acetyl-4-fluoro-phenoxy)-acetic acid, (57%, 4.3 g).
