Procedure

1 N NaOH (11 mL; 11 mmol) was added to a solution of methyl 4-amino-3-chlorobenzoate (2 g; 10.8 mmol) in MeOH (20 mL) at 45° C. The reaction mixture was stirred for 5 h at 45° C. and overnight at room temperature. More 1N NaOH was added (5 mL; 5 mmol) and the reaction was stirred at 45° C. for 2 h. After concentration of solvent was added 1N HCl (16 ml). The solid precipitate was filtered and dried to give 4-amino-3-chlorobenzoic acid, C, as a with solid (1.75 g; 10.2 mmol). Yield 94.6%.
