Procedure
Commercially available 2-fluorobenzoic acid (75 g, 0.54 Mol) was added to chlorosulphonic acid (320 g) over 15 minutes, stirred for 30 minutes then heated to 90° C. for 4½ hrs. Once cool, the reaction was quenched onto ice/water (1.5 kg/324 ml) and granulated for 1 hr. The precipitated product was filtered, water washed and dried at 50° C. under vacuo to give the title compound (99.7 g, 78.1%) as a white solid.
