Reaction Steps

10 g (0.075 mol) of N-chlorosuccinimide and 30 mg of benzoyl peroxide are added to a solution of 6.5 g (0.025 mol) of 2,4-dichloro-3-methylbenzenesulfonyl chloride in 30 ml of 1,1,2,2-tetrachloroethane at room temperature and under a nitrogen atmosphere. The reaction mixture is heated at 120° C. for 3 hours, cooled to room temperature, poured into water and then extracted with dichloromethane. The organic phase is washed with water, with saturated sodium bicarbonate solution and finally with water until the washings are neutral. It is then dried over magnesium sulfate and concentrated under reduced pressure. Recrystallization from hexane gives 0.85 g of the expected product in the form of white crystals (yield=11.5%).
