Reaction Steps

To a solution of 2-bromo-5-nitrobenzoic acid (1.00 g, 4.06 mmol) in methylene chloride (15 mL) is added oxalyl chloride (1.42 mL, 16.24 mmol) followed by 1 drop DMF. Addition of DMF results in vigorous gas evolution. After 1.5 h, the reaction mixture is concentrated under reduced pressure to give an oil which is used as is without purification.
