Yield:69316-10-5 94%

Reaction Conditions:

Stage #1: acetonitrilewith n-butyllithium;diisopropylamine in tetrahydrofuran;hexane at -78; for 0.5 h;Inert atmosphere;
Stage #2: methyl 5-chloro-2-methoxybenzoate in tetrahydrofuran;hexane at -78; for 0.666667 h;

Steps:

xviii.a 3-(5-Chloro-2-methoxyphenyl)-3-oxopropanenitrile I37

To a solution of diisopropylamine (3.29 g, 32.5 mmol) in anhydrous THF (100 mL) at -78 °C under N2 was added n-butyllithium (2.5 M solution in hexanes, 13.0 mL, 32.5 mmol) dropwise and the mixture was stirred at -78 °C for 1 h. A solution of acetonitrile (1.33 g, 32.5 mmol) in anhydrous THF (20 mL) was then added dropwise and stirring was continued at -78 °C for 30 min. A solution of methyl 5-chloro-2-methoxybenzoate (5.0 g, 25.0 mmol) in anhydrous THF (10 mL) was then added and the mixture was stirred at -78 °C for 40 min. The reaction was quenched at -78 °C with 1 M HCI and the mixture was extracted with EtOAc (100 mL x 3). The combined organic extracts were washed with brine, dried over anhydrous Na2S04, filtered and concentrated to give the title compound I37 (4.9 g, 94%) as an orange solid, which was used in the next step without further purification. LCMS-A (ES-API): Rt2.10 min; m/z 209.9 [M+H]+, 231.9 [M+Na]+.
