Participants

Reaction Steps

To generate the acyl chloride, 19.7 g (0.1 mol) of 2,2-dichloro-1-ethyl-3-methylcyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid were dissolved in toluene, and 36.9 g (0.31 mol) of thionyl chloride were added. After a reaction time of 5 hours at reflux, the mixture was stirred at room temperature for a further 14 hours. The reaction solution was concentrated using water pump vacuum. 22 g of a brown liquid were isolated as crude product. This was not purified prior to further use.
