Reaction Steps

255 mg of 4-(5-fluoro-2-nitrophenyl)-2-hydroxy-4-methyl-2-trifluoromethylvaleric acid in 3 ml of dimethyl acetamide is mixed at 0° C. with 0.105 ml of thionyl chloride, stirred for 30 minutes at 0° C. and 45 minutes at room temperature and combined with 300 mg of 5-aminophthalide. After 16 hours at room temperature, it is mixed with 2 M hydrochloric acid and ethyl acetate, the organic phase is washed neutral with water, dried (Na2SO4) and concentrated by evaporation. After chromatography on silica gel with hexane-ethyl acetate (3:2) and recrystallization from diisopropyl ether, 80 mg of 5-[4-(5-fluoro-2-nitrophenyl)-2-hydroxy-4-methyl-2-trifluoromethylvaleroylamino]phthalide is obtained, flash point 200–201° C.
