Procedure

To a solution of 52.75 g (0.265 mol) of (3-chloro-propoxy)-benzene in 100 ml of CH2Cl2, a solution of 19.4 ml (0.292 mol) of chlorosulfonic acid in 100 ml of CH2Cl2 is added dropwise at 0-5° C. under N2 atmosphere. The mixture is allowed to warm to ambient temperature and stirred for 2 hours. To the mixture, 29.6 ml (0.345 mol) of oxalyl chloride and 4 ml (0.052 mol) of DMF are added dropwise at r.t. and the mixture is stirred for 18 h at r.t. The reaction mixture is poured into ice-water, extracted with CH2Cl2. The combined extracts are dried over MgSO4 and concentrated under reduced pressure to give 58.5 g of 4-(3-chloropropoxy)benzenesulfonyl chloride; NMR (CDCl3): 2.26-2.36 (m, 2H), 3.76 (t, 2H, J=6.04 Hz), 4.24 (t, 2H, J=6.04 Hz), 7.06 (d, 2H, J=9.08 Hz), 7.98 (d, 2H, J=9.08 Hz).
