The product formed in the process described in Example 1 was analyzed using Fourier Transform Infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR). The spectrum produced showed absorptions at 1714 cm-1 and 1680 cm-1 (solid state analysis) which are assigned as carbonyl stretching frequencies. Spectra were also obtained for the corresponding 3-chloroperoxybenzoic acid (absorption at 1718 cm-1) and magnesium bis(3-chlorobenzoate) (absorptions at 1615 cm-1 and 1570 cm-1). A portion of the product formed in Example 1 was decomposed by storage for 7 days at 60° C. The spectrum of this material was essentially that of magnesium 3-chlorobenzoate. Analysis in methanol solution resulted in spectra for the product produced in Example 1 (absorption at 1680 cm-1) and for 3-chloroperoxybenzoic acid (absorption at 1740 cm-1). These results show that the product produced in Example 1 is different from the starting material or the simple magnesium carboxylate salt. Also, the absorption locations for the product from Example 1 are consistent with the values expected for magnesium bis(3 -chloroperoxybenzoate)tetrahydrate.
