Participants

Reaction Steps

Chloromethyl chloroformate (2.94 ml) was added to an ice-cold solution of triethyleneglycol monomethylether (4.70 ml) in dichloromethane (30 ml) followed by pyridine (2.93 ml) at such a rate that the temperature was kept below 10° C. After stirring overnight at room temperature the reaction mixture was washed twice with 0.5 M HCl followed by water and aqueous sodium bicarbonate. Drying over magnesium sulfate, filtration, evaporation in vacuo followed by distillation in vacuo, b.p.: 102-108° C. at 0.03 mbar, afforded the title compound as a colourless oil.
