Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

3-Chloro-phthalic anhydride (5a, purchased from TCI) (10 g, 54.95 mmol) was dissolved in glacial acetic acid (100 mL), and hydrazine hydrate (20 mL) was added dropwise at 0° C., and then refluxed for two hours at 125° C. When the reaction was completed, the solution was cooled down to room temperature, filtrated, and washed with water until the filtrate pH 6.0, and then dried to give 5-chloro-2,3-dihydrophthalazin-1,4-dione (5b), 10.08 g white solid (yield 93%).
