Procedure

13 g (0.0543 mol) of 4-amino-3-chloro-5-trifluoromethyl-benzoic acid was added to 32.5 ml of thionyl chloride. The suspension was heated until the crystals have dissolved, then refluxing was continued for another 2 h. After cooling to room temperature, the remaining thionyl chloride was evaporated under reduced pressure, thus obtained crude 3-chloro-4-amino-5-trifluoromethyl-benzoyl chloride, which was dissolved in chloroform at heating. Filtered with heating and evaporated under reduced pressure to remove chloroform, obtained the subject product. Yield: 80–90%, melting point: 110–115° C.
