Reaction Steps

A total of 8.0 g of the residue containing 3-(3-chlorophenyl)-2-methoxycarbonylpropionic acid prepared in Step B of Example 1 was dissolved in 32.8 g of 1,2-dichloroethane under nitrogen atmosphere, and 11.8 g of thionyl chloride and 0.05 g of dimethylformamide were added thereto, followed by stirring at 40° C. for 7 hours. The resulting mixture was concentrated under reduced pressure to remove 1,2-dichloroethane and unreacted thionyl chloride to thereby yield 7.98 g of methyl 2-chloroformyl-3-(3-chlorophenyl)-propionate.
