Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 1.5 g of 3-fluoro-6,11-dihydrodibenz[b,e]oxepin-11-ol in 20 ml of methylene chloride is added dropwise a solution of 1.6 g of thionyl chloride in 10 ml of methylene chloride under ice cooling over 30 minutes and then the mixture is stirred at room temperature for 1 hour. The reaction mixture is concentrated at room temperature under reduced pressure to give 1.5 g of 11-chloro-3-fluoro-6,11-dihydrodibenz[b,e]oxepin (oil). Mass spectrum m/z: 248(M+)
