Reaction Steps

6.3 ml (45 mmol) of triethylamine and then 7.4 g (45 mmol) of cyclohexyl chloroformate are added dropwise to a solution containing 5 g (41 mmol) of salicylaldehyde in 50 ml of tetrahydrofuran at 0° C. After stirring at ambient temperature for 2 hours, the medium is treated with water and then extracted with a heptane/ethyl acetate 1/1 mixture. The organic phase is dried over magnesium sulphate, filtered and concentrated. 10.3 g of 2-(cyclohexyloxycarbonyl-oxy)benzaldehyde are obtained in the form of a yellow oil with a quantitative yield.
