Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution containing 44.11 g of 6-phenoxy-2-picoline dissolved in 825 ml of methylene chloride under an atmosphere of nitrogen and at room temperature was added 96.82 g of 85% m-chloro-peroxybenzoic acid. The resulting mixture was stirred for 18 hrs. under an atmosphere of nitrogen and at room temperature. The reaction mixture was transferred to a separatory funnel and washed three times with 10% Na2CO3 twice with H2O and finally with saturated brine. After drying over anhydrous Na2SO4 removal of the solvents afforded 37.80 g of yellow oil. This material was used without purification in Part D.
