Product 1

HCID 1708124-Pentylbenzoyl chloride

Procedure

15 g. of p-n-pentylbenzoic acid are dissolved in 100 ml. of thionyl chloride and boiled at reflux for 1 hour. The excess thionyl chloride is then removed by distillation and the acid chloride is distilled under high vacuum. The p-n-pentylbenzoic acid chloride which is obtained has a boiling point of 104°C/2 mm.
