Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a novel method for producing 1,3-benzodioxole derivatives, and more particularly to a production method which involves a novel chlorination reaction of the benzene ring. [Background technology]

[0002] 1,3-Benzodioxole derivatives are useful as medicines or raw materials for their production, and are known to be useful in treating tumors (Patent Document 1). Patent Document 1 discloses various 1,3-benzodioxole derivatives and methods for producing them. One of the features of the production method disclosed in this document is that a chlorine atom is introduced into the benzene ring using N-chlorosuccinimide (Patent Document 1, Reference Example 2). Other methods for introducing a chlorine atom into a benzene ring include methods using chlorine gas (Non-Patent Document 1) and reagents such as t-BuOCl (Non-Patent Document 2). However, a chlorination reaction using sulfuryl chloride with high yield and few impurities has not been known until now. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]
