Reaction Steps

A mixture of 2,4-dichloroaniline (20.2 g, 0.125 mol), iodoacetone (26.6 g, 0.145 mol) and potassium carbonate (18.1 g, 0.13 mol) in DMF (200 ml) was heated under nitrogen at 100° C. overnight. After cooling to rt, water was added and the mixture extracted with ether (×3). The combined organic extracts were washed with water, dried (Na2SO4), filtered and concentrated. Flash chromatography (Heptane:EtOAc 90:10-80:20) afforded 13.6 g (50%) of the title compound as a brown solid.
