Procedure
The 3-hydroxy-4-nitrobenzoic acid starting material is acetylated using, for instance, acetic anhydride and pyridine at reflux temperatures for 1-4 hours to afford 3-acetoxy-4-nitrobenzoic acid. This compound is then dissolved in a non-polar, aprotic solvent, such as benzene or toluene, and refluxed with thionyl chloride for a period of about 2-6 hours to form the desired 3-acetoxy-4-nitrobenzoyl chloride.
