m-Chloroperbenzoic acid → HCID 19806755, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of m-chloroperoxybenzoic acid (100 mg, 0.49 mmol) in methylene chloride (1.5 ml) wad added dropwise with stirring to an ice-cooled solution of 3-ethoxy-4-chloro-5-methoxyisothiazole (87 mg, 0.45 mmol) in methylene chloride (1.0 ml). The solution was then stirred for 12 hours at room temperature. The m-chlorobenzoic acid, which precipitated out of solution, was filtered off. The filtrate was concentrated in vacuo, and the residue was chromatographed on a silica gel column, eluting with toluene followed by chloroform, to give 40 mg of the title compound.
