Reaktionsschritte

21.0 g (0.52 mol, 1.05 eq) of sodium hydroxide and then 78.7 g (0.52 mol, 1.05 eq) of sodium iodide are added to a solution of 69.1 g (0.5 mol, 1 eq) of 3-hydroxybenzoic acid in 700 ml of methanol. The reaction mixture is cooled to 0° C. and potassium hypochlorite solution (0.52 mol, 1.05 eq) is then added dropwise. The reaction medium is stirred at 0-5° C. for 2 hours and then at room temperature overnight. The methanol is evaporated off and the reaction medium is then acidified with concentrated hydrochloric acid solution. The precipitated product is filtered off, washed with water and dried. 121 g of 3-hydroxy-4-iodobenzoic acid are obtained in the form of an off-white solid. Yield=92%
