Acetyl chloride → 1-p-Chlorophenyl-1-acetoxy-2-(1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)-ethane

Participants

Reaction Steps

1-p-Chlorophenyl-2-(1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)-ethanol (2.24 g) and triethylamine (1.1 g) in dry diethyl ether (50 ml) were treated with acetyl chloride (0.8 g) in dry diethyl ether (5 ml) and the mixture was stirred for 3 hours at room temperature to give a white solid which was filtered off and washed with ether. The solvent was removed from the filtrate to give a brown oil. The oil was distilled to give the title compound as a semi-solid which could not be purified further.
