Reaction Steps

Oxalyl chloride (0.542 g, 0.37 ml, 4.27 mmol) was added dropwise to a solution of 3,5-di-tert-butylbenzoic acid (0.200 g, 0.853 mmol) and dichloromethane (4 ml). N,N-Dimethylformamide (1 drop) was added and the colorless solution stirred at RT for 3 h. The solution was concentrated to afford 3,5-di-tert-butylbenzoyl chloride as a yellow oil.
