Participants
| Role | Name | HCID | Charge |
|---|---|---|---|
| Reactant | Thionyl Chloride | HCID 24386 | — |
| Reactant | 1,4-Benzenedicarboxylic acid, methyl ester | HCID 3614454 | — |
| Solvent | Water | HCID 962 | — |
| Product | Methyl 4-(chlorocarbonyl)benzoate | HCID 81850 | — |
Reaction Steps
Monomethyl terephthalate (10.2 g, 0.057 mol) and thionylchloride (50 ml) were mixed in a 100 ml three-necked flask and stirred under gentle reflux overnight. The cooling water was shut off and excess thionylchloride swept away in a stream of nitrogen. By raising the temperature, the product then was distilled and collected as white crystals of high purity.
