Participants

Reaction Steps

6.90 g (30.4 mmol) 3-(2,2-Difluoro-benzo[1,3]dioxol-5-yl)-acrylamide, 4.76 g (37.5 mmol) 1,3-dichloroacetone and 50 ml toluene were kept at reflux temperature for 48 h with continuous removal of water by applying a Dean-Stark trap. After removal of solvents in vacuo, the residue was treated with 60 ml of a 1:1 mixture of water/isopropanol. After filtration the precipitate was washed first with isopropanol, then with heptane. Drying at 40° C. in vacuo gave 4-Chloromethyl-2-[2-(2,2-difluoro-benzo[1,3]dioxol-5-yl)-vinyl]-oxazole.
