Reaction Steps
Equimolar quantities of p-chloromethylphenyl chloroformate and dimethyl formamide were reacted at room temperature for one hour in acetonitrile (590 parts acetonitrile for every mole of dimethyl formamide or p-chloromethylphenyl chloroformate). Equimolar quantities of methanol were then added to the immonium salt mixture, and the solution was then stirred for about one half hour (with cooling) at 25°-30° C.
