Hydrochloric Acid → 2-(Chloromethyl)-2,3-dihydro-1,4-benzodioxin

참여 물질

반응 단계

202 g (1.21 mols) of 2-hydroxymethyl-1,4-benzodioxan are introduced into a 1 liter flask equipped with a stirrer, condenser and dropping funnel, and 288 g (2.42 mols) of thionyl chloride are run in dropwise. Violent evolution of HCl is observed. The mixture is heated under reflux until HCl ceases to be evolved, that is to say for 1 hour 30 minutes. The mixture is then distilled in vacuo after having driven off the excess thionyl chloride. 175.5 g (yield: 77.2%) of 2-chloromethyl-1,4-benzodioxan are obtained.
