Removal of the volatiles by spin evaporation in vacuo gave a residue that was dissolved in 1 N aqueous hydrochloric acid. The aqueous solution was extracted with ethyl acetate (3 times) and the organic layers were combined, washed with water, and concentrated by spin evaporation in vacuo to give 2-chloro-5-{[(trifluoromethyl)sulfonyl]amino}benzoic acid as a crystalline solid (0.78 g, 82%). 1H-NMR (400 MHz, DMSO-d6): δ 7.63-7.60 (m, 1H), 7.59-7.54 (m, 1H), 7.40-7.35 (m, 1H). ES-LCMS m/z 304 (M+H).
