Reaction Steps

A solution of 13.4 g. (0.07 mol.) of 3,5-dichlorobenzoic acid and 10.7 g. (0.09 mol.) of thionyl chloride in 60 ml. of methylene chloride was refluxed on a steam bath for two hours. Concentration under reduced pressure and distillation of the residue gave 3,5-dichlorobenzoyl chloride.
