Procedure

A mixture of 11.5 g of 6,7-dichloro-5-hydroxy-2-n-propylbenzo[b]thiophene, 8.82 g of ethyl bromoacetate, 7.52 g of potassium carbonate, 135 ml of 2-butanone and 9 ml of dimethylformamide is stirred for 3 days. The reaction mixture is filtered and 100 ml of water and 100 ml of ether are added. The layers are separated and the aqueous layer is extracted 2 times with 100-ml portions of ether. The combined organic layers are dried, filtered and the filtrate is evaporated to give an oil which crystallizes from hexane. Recrystallization from ether-hexane gives 9 g of ethyl [(6,7-dichloro-2-n-propylbenzo[b]thien-5-yl)oxy]acetate, mp 62°-63°.
