Reaction Steps

3-chlorophenol was dissolved in dichloromethane. Triethylamine (1 eq) and acetic anhydride (2 eq) were added. The mixture was stirred at room temperature for 5 hours. Solvent was eliminated by vacuum evaporation. The evaporation residue was taken up in dichloromethane, dried on magnesium sulfate and the solvent was eliminated by vacuum evaporation. Purification was carried out by chromatography on silica gel (elution:cyclohexane/ethyl acetate 95:5).
