Reaction Steps

A mixture of 328 mg of 2,4,6-trimethylbenzoic acid and 3 mL of thionyl chloride was stirred at room temperature for 2 hours. The volatile components were evaporate in vacuo, the residue was redissolved in 5 mL of CH2Cl2, and the volatile components were again evaporated in vacuo to give 2,4,6trimethylbenzoyl chloride.
