Reaktionsschritte

4-Amino-2-chlorobenzoic acid was stirred in water (60 ml) and 1,2-dimethoxyethane (25 ml) with sodium bicarbonate (5.04 g) and the brown suspension cooled to 0°-5° C. 2-Methylpropionyl chloride (4.26 g) was added dropwise over 10 minutes with vigorous stirring, and the mixture was then stirred at 0°-10° C. for 2 hours. The mixture was poured into 2 M hydrochloric acid and the pale brown precipitate washed with water and filtered and dried to give 2-chloro-4-(2'-methylpropionamido)benzoic acid as a pale brown crystalline solid (6.30 g), m.p. 206°-209° C.
