Procedure

50 grams of β-(β-chloroethanesulfonyl)propionic acid and 150 ml of thionyl chloride were heated under refluxing for about 2 hours, excess thionyl chloride distilled off under reduced pressure, and the residue recrystallized from anhydrous benzene to give 46 g of white β-(β-chloroethanesulfonyl)propionyl chloride, m.p. 73°-5° C.
