Phosphorus oxychloride → 3-Chloro-2-(4-chloro-2-fluoro-5-propan-2-yloxyphenyl)-4,5,6,7-tetrahydroindazole

Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 2-(4-chloro-2-fluoro-5-isopropoxyphenyl)-1,2,4,5,6,7-hexahydro-3H-indazol-3-one (1 g) and phosphorus oxychloride (0.7 g) was heated under reflux heating for 6 hours. After cooling, the reaction mixture was dissolved in chloroform, washed with a 5% sodium hydroxide solution and water, dried and concentrated. The residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography to give 0.3 g of 3-chloro-2-(4-chloro-2-fluoro-5-isopropoxyphenyl)-4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-2H-indazole (Compound No. 2). nD26 1.5530.
