Product 1

HCID 110784734-(4-Octyloxyphenyl)benzoyl chloride

Procedure

4-[4-Octyloxyphenyl]benzoic acid (OPBA) was converted into its acid chloride, OPBC, by heating it at reflux with oxalyl chloride after which excess oxalyl chloride was allowed to distil out and the residue taken up in ethanol free chloroform.

Workup

  1. temperatureby heating it
  2. customto distil out
