Procedure

Similarly, reaction of 2-trichloromethylbenzoic-acid with thionyl chloride affords 2-trichloromethylbenzoyl-chloride, which, on reaction with diethylamine, affords 2-trichloromethyl-N,N-diethylbenzamide. Following a procedure similar to that described in Preparation 5, reaction of the latter with s-butyl lithium and reaction of the resulting lithium salt with sulfur dioxide followed by sodium hydroxyl-amine-O-sulfonate affords 2-trichloromethyl-6-aminosulfonyl-N,N-diethylbenzamide, which, on heating in glacial acetic acid, affords 4-trichloromethylsaccharin.
