Chlorine → HCID 13336443, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

3-Phenyl-5-acetylaminoisoxazole (7) (2.022 g) was dissolved in tetrahydrofuran (50 ml), a solution of chlorine (850 mg) in carbon tetrachloride (8.8 ml) was added dropwise thereto, and the mixture was kept to react at room temperature and under ice-cooling for 30 minutes, respectively. After evaporation the resulting residue was subjected to column chromatography on silica gel (20 g) to give crystals (1.43 g) of 3-phenyl-4-chloro-5-acetylaminoisoxazole (8) from the ether fractions; mp. 141°-141.5° C. (recrystallized from ether-hexane).
