Vol. 57 sulfonate was heated on a water-bath for two and one-half hours with stirring. The chloroethoxy compound was separated from unaltered ester by shaking with a minimum quantity of petroleum ether. The yield was 75%, and the compound melted at 64-65 °after crystallization from 95% ethanol.Anal. Caled, for Ci«Hu02C1: Cl, 14.38. Found: Cl, 14.53 and 14.51.4-|3-Diethylaminoethoxydibenzofuran, C12H7O [OCH2-CH2N(C2H6)2], was prepared in a 22% yield by heating the chloroethoxy compound with diethylamine at 100°f or eighteen hours. The impure base could not be distilled without significant decomposition. The hydrochloride formed by passing hydrogen chloride into a dry etheracetone solution precipitated as an oil which crystallized after standing for several days and melted at 128.5-129.5°o n crystallization from an ether-acetone solution.Anal. Caled, for CisH2202NCl: N, 4.38. Found: N, 4.32 and 4.48.4-|3-Piperidinoethoxydibenzofuran, 0 2 70(00 20 2-NC5H10), was prepared by heating the chloroethoxy compound with piperidine on a steam-bath for twenty-four hours. The yield was 52%. The free amine distils at 213°( 2 mm.) and the hydrochloride melts at 210.5-212°.Anal. Caled, for C,9H2202NC1: N, 4.22. Found: N, 4.44 and 4.56.
4-Dibenzofurancarboxylic AcidChloride, Ci2H7-OCOC1.-The 4-dibenzofurancarboxylic acid was prepared in 30% yield by carbonation of 4-dibenzofuryl-lithium (prepared, in turn, through «-butyl-lithium and dibenzofuran); and in 50% yield by carbonating 4-dibenzofurylsodium. A quantitative yield of the crude acid chloride was obtained from 112 g. (0.52 mole) of 4-dibenzofurancarboxylic acid and 500 g. (4.2 moles) of thionyl chloride.The acid chloride was crystallized from ethanol, and finally purified by sublimation to melt at 118°.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
