Procedure
In dry dimethylformamide, 0.5 g of 4-bromo-2,3-dihydrobenzo[b]thiepin-5(4H)-one, 0.6 g of silver tosylate and 0.2 g of lithium carbonate are heated under reflux for 12 hours, at the end of which time the reaction mixture is poured in ice-water. The resultant crystals are recovered by filtration and dried. This crude product is purified by thin-layer chromatography on silica gel (solvent system: benzene-n-hexane=1:3). The crude crystals thus obtained are recrystallized from methylene chloride-n-hexane. By the above procedure there is obtained 3-oxo-2,3-dihydro[1]-benzothiophene-2-spirocyclopropane as colorless prisms melting at 70° C.
