Reaction Steps

To a solution composed of 2.89 g of (6-chloro-3,4-dihydro-2-methyl-2H-benzopyran-2-yl)acetic acid, 2 drops of N,N-dimethylformamide and 50 ml of benzene was added 0.9 ml of thionyl chloride and the mixture was refluxed for 2 hours. After cooling, the reaction mixture was evaporated under reduced pressure to remove the low-boiling substances. The above procedure gave (6-chloro-3,4-dihydro-2-methyl-2H-benzopyran-2-yl)acetyl chloride in a quantitative yield of 3.1 g.
