Procedure

2-(2,4-Dichlorophenyl)-2-(1H-1,2,4-triazol-1-yl-methyl)-oxirane, 5 g, (0.0185 mole) was heated under mild reflux in thiolacetic acid (CH3COSH) (5 ml) for three hours. The mixture was then cooled and added to a mixture of ice-cooled saturated sodium bicarbonate solution (200 ml) and ethyl acetate (200 ml) and the aqueous layer was separated. The organic layer was washed a further four times with ice-cooled saturated sodium bicarbonate solution (200 ml in total), dried over magnesium sulphate and evaporated to give a red gum which was dissolved in ethanol (20 ml). This solution was added dropwise over 15 minutes to a stirred and ice-cooled solution of sodium ethoxide (3.78 g, 0.0556 mole) in ethanol (100 ml). After one hour the mixture was poured into 1N hydrochloric acid (100 ml) and this solution was then neutralized by addition of solid sodium bicarbonate. Extraction with dichloromethane (6×50 ml), drying over magnesium sulphate, and evaporation of the combined extracts gave a gum which was chromatographed on silica, eluting with ethyl acetate, to give after one recrystallization from ethyl acetate/hexane the title compound, yield 2.3 g, m.p., 139°-142.5° C.
