反应详情

Phosphorus oxychloride (1.4 ml, 15.2 mmol) was added dropwise to anhydrous DMF (5 ml) at 0° C. After 30 minutes a solution of 2,3-dihydro-5H-benzo[b]oxepin-4-one (980 mg, 6.04 mmol) in anhydrous DMF (5 ml) was added dropwise and this was allowed to stir at room temperature for 2 days. The reaction mixture was then added to ice water, and the ice allowed to melt before extracting into ethyl acetate and washing with water and brine to give 4-chloro-2,3-dihydro-benzo[b]oxepine-5-carbaldehyde.
