Phenol → HCID 4860732, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

Part A: To a cooled (ice bath) solution of 2,4-dichlorobenzoyl chloride (5 mL, 35.66 mmol) in 50 mL CH2Cl2 was added phenol (3.13 mL, 35.66 mmol), followed by triethylamine (4.97 mL, 35.66 mmol). The resulting reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 5 h. The mixture was then partitioned between CH2Cl2 and water. The organic layer was dried (Na2SO4), filtered, and evaporated in vacuo to yield 9.5 g of phenyl 2,4-dichlorobenzoate. MS (NH3-CI) 284 (M+NH4)+.
