Reaktionsschritte

To a solution of 4-bromo-2-chlorobenzoic acid (5 g, 21.2 mmol) in 50 mL of methanol was added thionyl chloride (1.4 mL, 19.8 mmol) drop-wise. The reaction was heated to 60° C. After 3 hours the reaction was allowed to cool back to room temperature and concentrated down to give 4-bromo-2-chlorobenzoic acid methyl ester as an orange liquid. Amount obtained: 4.65 g (95%). LCMS (M/Z): 249 (M+H). 1H NMR (Chloroform-d) δ: 3.92 (s, 3 H) 7.45 (dd, J=8.4, 2.0 Hz, 1 H) 7.63 (d, J=2.0 Hz, 1 H) 7.72 (d, J=8.4 Hz, 1 H).
