Reaction Steps

To a solution of 48 g of 5-chloro-1,3-dimethyl-1H-pyrazole-4-carbaldehyde in 230 ml of chlorobenzene are added 36.5 g of sodium carbonate. Subsequently, 1.2 g of bis(tert-butylcyclohexyl) peroxycarbonate are added at 20° C. and the mixture is heated to 40° C. Within 4 hours, 24 g of chlorine gas are introduced. After the gas introduction has ended, the reaction solution is stirred at 40° C. for a further 30 minutes. The solid is filtered off and washed with a little chlorobenzene. After removal of the solvent, 5-chloro-1,3-dimethyl-1H-pyrazole-4-carbonyl chloride is obtained in a yield of 68%.
