Procedure

Benzene (70.0 cc) and 14 0 grams of γ-(p-methoxyphenoxy)butyric acid were agitated with water cooling and 5.74 cc of thionyl chloride was added dropwise. Subsequently, the mixture was agitated for 10 minutes at an internal temperature of 60° C. After the reaction had been completed, the reaction mixture was cooled and transferred to a separate flask and the solvent and excess thionyl chloride were removed in a rotary evaporator. γ-(p-Methoxyphenoxy)butyric acid chloride was obtained as white crystals.
