Procedure

To an ice-water cooled solution of 2,4-dichloro-1-methanesulfinylmethoxy-benzene (8 g, 33.46 mmol) in DCM (100 mL) was added dropwise a solution of acetylchloride (2.6 mL, 36.80 mmol) in DCM (10 mL). The reaction mixture was allowed to reach room temperature during 2 hrs at which time the volatiles were evaporated in vacuo affording ˜7 g of crude 2,4-dichloro-1-chloromethoxy-benzene which was used without further purification.
