Procedure

3-(2,2-Dichloroethenyl)-2,2-dimethylcyclopropane carboxylic acid (32.0 grams) was stirred in 400 ml of methylene chloride under nitrogen. To this was added N,N-dimethylformamide (12 ml) and thionyl chloride (22.6 grams). The resulting solution was heated at reflux temperature for about 1.5 hours. The solvent was then removed in vacuo leaving about 36 grams of the desired 3-(2,2-dichloroethenyl)-2,2-dimethylcyclopropane carboxoyl chloride, which was confirmed by IR and NMR spectroscopy.
