Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 1 g of the oily 2-acetoxymethyl-6,7-dichloro-2,3-dihydrobenzofuran in 2 ml of thionyl chloride is added 1.25 ml of chlorosulfonic acid under ice-cooling and then stirred at room temperature for 2 hours. The reaction mixture is poured into iced water (about 50 g) and extracted with ether. The ether layer is washed water, then dried over calcium chloride, and evaporated to dryness under reduced pressure. To a solution of thus obtained oily product dissolved in 10 ml of dichloromethane is dropwise added 30% ethanol solution of dimethylamine (3.83×3 mmol) at -30° C., and the mixture is stirred for 2 hours. After the addition of dichloromethane, the reaction mixture is washed 10% hydrochloride. The dichloromethane layer is dried and then evaporated under reduced pressure to give an oily product, which is treated with ether to give the objective 2-acetoxymethyl-6,7-dichloro-5-(N,N-dimethylsulfamoyl)-2,3-dihydrobenzofuran (I h-70), yield 88%, m.p. 159°-160° C.
