Reaction Steps

To 9.72 g (0.0575 mole) of 2-chloro-1,3-dimethylimidazolinium chloride, 83 g of toluene was added and successively 8.61 g (0.05 mole) of p-toluenesulfonic acid was added. The mixture was reacted at 110° C. for 4 hours. The reaction mass was analyzed by gas chromatography. p-Toluenesulfonyl chloride was obtained in the yield of 93.2%.
