HCID 11818130Benzoyl chloride, 2,4-dichloro-5-fluoro-3-nitro-

Procedure

106.6 g of 2,4-dichloro-5-fluoro-3-nitro-benzoic acid are refluxed with 250 ml of thionyl chloride for 2 hours. The excess thionyl chloride is then removed by distillation at atmospheric pressure and the residue is fractionated in a high vacuum. 104.7 g of 2,4-dichloro-5-fluoro-3-nitro-benzoyl chloride pass over at 110°-115° C./0.08-0.09 mbar. On standing, crystals of melting point 35°-37° C. form.

Workup

  1. customThe excess thionyl chloride is then removed by distillation at atmospheric pressure
  2. customover at 110°-115° C./0.08-0.09 mbar
