Abstract

ZnCl2 is an efficient catalyst for synthesis of carboxylic acid anhydride from 2‐acyl‐4,5‐dichloropyridazin‐3(2H)‐ones. Treatment of 2‐acyl‐4,5‐dichloropyridazin‐3(2H) ‐ones with ZnCl2 (0.5 equivalents) and air in refluxing dry THF or acetonitrile gave the corresponding symmetric acid anhydrides in good to excellent yield.
