Reaction Steps

30 g of 4-hydroxybenzoic acid are placed in 780 ml of water containing 18 g of sodium hydroxide, 49.5 g of sodium iodide are added, 675 ml of 3.5% sodium hypochlorite solution are run in slowly and the mixture is left with stirring at AT for 13 hours. 60 ml of concentrated H2SO4 are added and then, after cooling, the precipitate formed is filtered off and washed with water. This gives 32.46 g of the expected compound, m.p.=163° C.
