0.44 ml (5.1 mmol) 1,1,1-trifluoro-2,3-epoxypropane in 7.5 ml THF and 2.2 ml hexane are cooled to −100° C. and 2.03 ml of a 2.5 M n-butyl lithium solution (5.1 mmol) in hexane are added over 15 minutes while the temperature does not exceed −95° C. 10 minutes after complete addition 0.57 g (2.3 mmol) 4-chloro-3-fluoro-2,N-dimethoxy-N-methylbenzamid in 10 ml THF are added over 15 minutes while the temperature does not exceed −95° C. After 3 hours at −100° C. 2.3 ml diethyl ether is added and the reaction mixture is warmed to room temperature over 14 hours. The reaction is quenched by addition of saturated ammonium chloride solution. The phases were separated and the aqueous layer is extracted twice with diethyl ether, the combined organic phases washed with brine, dried over sodium sulphate and then evaporated to yield 570 mg of (4-chloro-3-fluoro-2-methoxyphenyl)[2-(trifluoromethyl)oxiranyl]methanone. 1H-NMR (CDCl3); δ=2.99 (dq, 1H), 3.37 (d, 1H), 4.14 (d, 3H), 7.18 (m, 1H), 7.19 (m, 1H).
