Reaction Steps

4-Amino-3-chloro-benzoic acid methyl ester (21.6 mmol) was saponified in EtOH (25 ml) and NaOH (1M, 25 ml) at reflux for 2 h. The organic solvent was evaporated and pH adjusted to 4. The product was removed by filtration, washed with water and dried in vacuo to give 4-amino-3-chloro-benzoic acid.
