Reaction Steps

The 18% solution of dihydro-3-(o-nitrobenzoyl)-2(3H)furanone in toluene obtained in Example 5 (450 g, 0.34 mole furanone) is treated, with stirring, with 37% HCl (48 g, 0.60 mole HCl), heated at reflux temperature for 6-11 hours, until reaction is complete by LC analysis, cooled to 35°-45° C. and allowed to settle. The phases are separated to give the title product as a toluene solution, 425 g. The product solution is used as is in Example 7.
