Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

Into a reactor, equipped with a mechanic stirrer and a reflux condenser, 8-fluoro-2H-chromene-5-carboxylic acid amide (2 g; 10 mmoles), sodium nitrite (1.4 g; 20 mmoles), potassium iodide (0.33 g; 2 mmoles) and ethyl acetate (20 ml) were charged at room temperature and under inert gas. The mixture was heated at 40° C., then Oxistrong 15® (4 ml) was added in 4 hours. At the end of the addition the reaction mixture was kept under stirring for 1.5 hours, then cooled at 20° C. and diluted with ethyl acetate up to complete dissolution (about 150 ml). After washing with a 20% sodium metabisulphite solution, the phases were separated. The organic phase was washed with a saturated sodium chloride solution, dried and the solvent was removed under reduced pressure, obtaining 8-fluoro-3-nitro-2H-chromene-5-carboxylic acid amide (1.8 g; titre 88%; 66% yield).
