Sulfuryl chloride → Ethyl 2-chloro-4-methyl-3-oxopentanoate

참여 물질

반응 단계

A 1M solution of sulfuryl chloride in dichloromethane (25 mL, 25 mmol) was added to a solution of 4-methyl-3-oxopentanoic acid ethyl ester (3.95 g, 25 mmol) in dichloromethane (15 mL) cooled in a water bath. The solution was stirred at room temperature for 2 h and then the reaction mixture was washed with water (2×20 mL). Each of the aqueous layers was extracted with dichloromethane and the combined organic layers were dried (MgSO4), filtered and evaporated to give 2-chloro-4-methyl-3-oxopentanoic acid ethyl ester (5.0 g, 104% of the theoretical amount). This was used directly in the next step without purification.
