2,4-Difluoroaniline → HCID 28393793, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 2-hydroxy-4-methoxybenzoic acid (1.68 g, 10 mmole) in tetrahydrofuran (40 mL) was added thionyl chloride (2.5 mL, 35 mmole) and refluxed 3 hr. The mixture was steamed (110° C.) by Dean-Stark. The residue was directly reacted with 2,4-difluorobenzenamine (1 mL, 10 mmole) in THF (40 mL) for 14 hr. The reaction mixture was concentrated and extracted with ethyl acetate, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate. Recrystallization of desired products from hot dichloromethane afforded the compound.
