Participants

Reaction Steps

In methanol (5 mL) was dissolved 203 mg (0.822 mmol) of 1-(2,2-dichlorocyclopropyl)-2-(methoxymethoxy)benzene obtained in (1), 0.1 mL of conc. hydrochloric acid was added to the solution, and the resulting mixture was stirred at 60° C. for 2 hours. After confirming disappearance of the starting materials by thin layer chromatography, the reaction mixture was poured into water, and extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic layers were combined, washed successively with water and brine, and dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate. The solvent was removed to obtain 194 mg of a crude product of 2-(2,2-dichlorocyclopropyl)phenol.
