Reaction Steps

A suspension of 30 g (0.15 mol) of 2-methoxy-4-amino-5-chlorobenzoic acid in 500 ml methanol is cooled to 0° and the mixture treated with gaseous HCl for 30 minutes. After all the acid dissolves the solution is evaporated to dryness to obtain methyl 2-methoxy-4-amino-5-chlorobenzoate hydrochloride which is used directly in the next step.
