Hydrochloric Acid → 2,4-Dichloro-5-[[(2-fluorophenyl)amino]sulfonyl]benzoic acid

Participants

Reaction Steps

To the product of Step A was added ethanol (8 mL) followed by a solution of NaOH (0.378 g, 9.45 mmol) in water (8 mL). The reaction was stirred at ambient temperature for 45 minutes. To the mixture was added 1 N HCl (23 mL), and the mixture was stirred overnight. The solids were collected by filtration, washed with water (1×5 mL), and dried by vacuum filtration to give 2,4-dichloro-5-{[(2-fluorophenyl)amino]sulfonyl}benzoic acid: 1H NMR (400 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ ppm 13.50 (bs, 1H), 10.30 (bs, 1H), 8.22 (s, 1H), 8.04 (s, 1H), 7.28-7.11 (m, 4H); MS (ESI) m/z 362.3 (M−H)−.
