Participants

Reaction Steps

53.2 g of 2,3,4,5-tetrafluorobenzoyl chloride are added dropwise to a suspension of 36.5 g of anhydrous aluminum chloride in 100 ml of 1,2-dichloroethane at 0°-10° C., while cooling with ice and stirring. Acetylene is then passed in at 40°-50° C. for 7 hours and the mixture is poured onto ice. The phases are separated, subsequent extraction with methylene chloride is carried out and the extract is washed with water and dried with sodium sulphate. The solvent is distilled off in vacuo and the residue is distilled under a high vacuum. 49.2 g of 2,3,4,5-tetrafluorophenyl 2-chlorovinyl ketone pass over at 92°-105° C./1.5 mbar.
