Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 2.84g. (0.01 mole) of 2-octyl-4,5-dichloro-3-isothiazolidinone 1-oxide in 20 ml. of chloroform at 0° C. is added a solution of 5.4g. (0.025 mole) of 81% pure m-chloroperbenzoic acid in 100 ml. of chloroform. The mixture is stirred for three days at 50° C. The reaction mixture is filtered and the filtrate is washed with a dilute sodium bicarbonate solution. The chloroform layer is dried over magnesium sulfate and evaporated to give the crude product.
