Tetrahydrofuran → HCID 53871027, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

67 ml of a solution of methyl magnesium chloride in tetrahydrofuran (3M; 0.2 mol) were added dropwise to a solution of 22 g (0.1 mol) of 2,4-dichloro-6-fluorobenzothiazole and 3.3 g (5 mmol) of dichlorobis(triphenylphosphine)nickel in 100 ml of diethyl ether. After stirring had been carried out for 2 hours, the mixture was poured onto saturated aqueous ammonium chloride solution. The desired product was extracted with diethyl ether, after which the combined organic phases were washed with water, dried over magnesium sulfate and finally evaporated down. 10 g of the desired product were obtained by crystallization from petroleum ether.
