4-(chloromethyl)benzenesulfonyl chloride

Conditions: temp:0.00; pressure:0.00; stir:

Conditions: temp:0.00; pressure:0.00; stir:; See reaction.notes.procedure_details.

Procedure: To a 250 mL flask, fitted with addition funnel, reflux condenser and thermometer, is placed 50 g (0.43 mole) of chlorosulfonic acid. Benzyl chloride, (18 g, 0.14 mole) is added to the reaction mixture, slowly, with continuous stirring, over a period of two hours. The temperature of the reaction is kept near room temperature using a water bath. After the addition is complete, the stirring is continued for at least one hour. After analysis by thin layer chromatography shows that the reaction is complete, the reaction mixture is poured into 150 g of crushed ice. The solid is collected and washed with cold water several times. The crude product is further purified by recrystallization. The product is characterized using 1H NMR spectroscopy. To a 250 mL flask, fitted with addition funnel reflux condenser is kept near room temperature After the addition the stirring is continued for at least one hour The solid is collected washed with cold water several times The crude product is further purified by recrystallization
