Reaction Steps

In a manner similar to Sosnovsky et al. (Synthesis, p 722, (1979)), the reaction of 3.0 grams (0.014 mole) of -(2-fluoroethoxy)-3-nitrobenzaldehyde (prepared by the method of Example 1 from 4-hydroxy-3-nitrobenzaldehyde), 1.1 gram (0.015 mole) of hydroxylamine hydrochloride, and 1.2 ml (0.014 mole) of pyridine (dissolved in 10 ml of chloroform) in 50 ml of chloroform and ethanol (70/30 mixture) followed by treatment with 1.6 gram (0.014 mole) of selenium dioxide yielded 2.3 grams of 4-cyano-2-nitrophenyl 2-fluoroethyl ether as a solid.
