Reaction Steps

A solution of 4,5,6-trichloropyridine-2-carboxylic acid (5.20 g, 23.1 mmol) and thionyl chloride (3.0 mL) in dichloroethane (30 mL) was refluxed until the evolved gas ceased. The reaction mixture was concentrated to give 4,5,6-trichloropyridine-2-carbonyl chloride (5.60 g, 23.0 mmol), mp 60-62° C.
