Nitrofungin → HCID 13101307, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

3-Methyl-3-butenyltosylate derived from 12.9 g of 3-methyl-3-buten-1-ol by a conventional procedure was reacted with 31 g of sodium salt of 2-chloro-4-nitrophenol in 250 ml of dimethylformamide. The resultant mixture was stirred at 90°-100° C. for 2.5 hours and then poured into ice-water, followed by extraction with benzene. The solvent was removed under reduced pressure, and the precipitated crystals were subjected to filtration by a glass filter and washed with ether to give 29.3 g of 3-chloro-4-(3-methyl-3-butenyloxy)nitrobenzene. M.P. 38°-39° C.
