Abstract
Starting from tetrachloroacetone 1 and (carbomethoxymethylene) triphenylphosphorane 4, the title compound 16 was prepared in five steps in 44% yield. Spectroscopic and chromatographic data indicated that this material was identical to a potent mutagen isolated from kraft pulp chlorination effluent. Various mutant Salmonella typhimurium strains (TA 98, 100, and 1537) behaved similarly when incubated with either 16 or the isolated mutagen.
