A method for the preparation of a compound having the structure: ##STR22## wherein R' is CH 3 or COOR"; R" is C 1 -C 4 alkyl; L, M, Q and R 7 are each H, halogen (Cl, Br, F or I); C 1 -C 4 alkyl, C 1 -C 4 alkoxy, C 1 -C 4 alkylthio, C 1 -C 4 alkylsulfonyl, halo(C 1 -C 4 )alkyl, NO 2 , CN, phenyl, phenoxy, difluoromethoxy, loweralkylamino, chlorophenyl or phenoxy substituted with one Cl, CF 3 , NO 2 or CH 3 group, with the proviso that only one of L, M, Q or R 7 , may represent a substituent other than hydrogen, halogen, C 1 -C 4 alkyl, C 1 -C 4 alkoxy; comprising, reacting a compound having the structure: ##STR23## wherein L, M, Q, R 7 , R' and R" are as described above, with an approximately equimolar amount of an immonium salt having the structure: Cl--CH═N.sup.⊕ --(R"').sub.2.a where R"' is C 1 -C 4 alkyl or when taken jointly with the nitrogen forms a 5 or 6 member ring and a is PO 2 Cl 2 .sup.⊖ or Cl.sup.⊖ in the presence of a hydrocarbon solvent, a chlorinated hydrocarbon solvent, or mixtures thereof at a temperature between 40° to 110° C.
Claim 2
Independent Claim 212 words
A method for the preparation of a compound having the structure: ##STR22## wherein R' is CH 3 or COOR"; R" is C 1 -C 4 alkyl; L, M, Q and R 7 are each H, halogen (Cl, Br, F or I); C 1 -C 4 alkyl, C 1 -C 4 alkoxy, C 1 -C 4 alkylthio, C 1 -C 4 alkylsulfonyl, halo(C 1 -C 4 )alkyl, NO 2 , CN, phenyl, phenoxy, difluoromethoxy, loweralkylamino, chlorophenyl or phenoxy substituted with one Cl, CF 3 , NO 2 or CH 3 group, with the proviso that only one of L, M, Q or R 7 , may represent a substituent other than hydrogen, halogen, C 1 -C 4 alkyl, C 1 -C 4 alkoxy; comprising, reacting a compound having the structure: ##STR23## wherein L, M, Q, R 7 , R' and R" are as described above, with an approximately equimolar amount of an immonium salt having the structure: Cl--CH═N.sup.⊕ --(R"').sub.2.a where R"' is C 1 -C 4 alkyl or when taken jointly with the nitrogen forms a 5 or 6 member ring and a is PO 2 Cl 2 .sup.⊖ or Cl.sup.⊖ in the presence of a hydrocarbon solvent, a chlorinated hydrocarbon solvent, or mixtures thereof at a temperature between 40° to 110° C.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 35 words
A method according to claim 1 wherein the chlorinated hydrocarbon solvent is methylene chloride, or dichlorethane, chlorobenzene, orthodichlorobenzene and the reaction mixture is heated for a period of time sufficient to essentially complete the reaction.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 18 words
A method according to claim 2 wherein R' is COOR" and R" is C 1 -C 4 alkyl.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 19 words
A method according to claim 2 wherein R' is CH 3 and R" is C 1 -C 4 alkyl.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 55 words
A method according to claim 1 with the addition step of preparing the immonium reactant in situ comprising, admixing, in the presence of a solvent, equimolar amounts of dimethylformamide and a compound POCl 3 , COCl 2 , ClCOCOCl or SOCl 2 and the compound having the structure ##STR24## is added to the reaction mixture.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 31 words
A method according to claim 5 wherein the hydrocarbon solvent is toluene and the reaction mixture is heated at reflux for a period of time sufficient to essentially complete the reaction.
