Reaction Steps

To a solution of 4.00 g (0.0163 mole) of 7-amino-4,6-dichloro-2,3-dihydro-2,2-dimethylbenzofuran-3-one in 80 mL of toluene at ambient temperature was added 3.22 g (0.0163 mole) of trichloromethyl chloroformate. This mixture was stirred for fifteen minutes before being heated at reflux for three hours. The solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure, leaving 4,6-dichloro-2,3-dihydro-2,2-dimethylbenzofuran-3-on-7-yl isocyanate as a pale yellow oil. Upon standing, this oil solidified. The IR spectrum was consistent with an isocyanate. Step E Synthesis of 3-(4,6-dichloro-2,3-dihydro-2,2-dimethylbenzofuran-3-on-7-yl)-6-trifluoromethyluracil
