Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 52.4 g (0.2 mole) of Isopropyl-N-chloromethyl-N-(3-chlorophenyl)-carbamate and 24.6 g (0.3 mole) of anhydrous sodium acetate in 700 ml of anhydrous acetonitrile was boiled for four hours under reflux. After cooling, the salts were filtered off, the filtrate was evaporated, the residue was dissolved in 300 ml of ether and the ether solution was washed with water and dried over freshly calcined sodium sulfate. Thereafter, the solvent was distilled off and the resulting oil was distilled in vacuo. 34.2 g (95% of theory) of Isopropyl-N-acetoxymethyl-N-(3-chlorophenyl)carbamate of boiling point 134° C./0.3 mm Hg and refractive index nD20 1.5074 were obtained.
