Procedure

At 0° C., chloroacetyl chloride (8.75 mL, 0.11 mol) was added dropwise to a mixture of 4-nitro-2-aminophenol (15.4 g, 0.1 mol), benzyltrimethylammonium chloride (18.6 g, 0.1 mol) and NaHCO3 (42 g, 0.5 mol) in chloroform (350 ml) over a period of 30 min. After addition, the reaction mixture was stirred at 0° C. for 1 h, then at 50° C. overnight. The solvent was removed under reduced pressure and the residue was treated with water (50 ml). The solid was collected via filtration, washed with water and recrystallized from ethanol to provide 6-nitro-4H-benzo[1,4]oxazin-3-one as a pale yellow solid (8 g, 41%).
