Product 1

HCID 27745412-Chloronicotinoyl chlorideYield 98%

Procedure

2-Chloronicotinic acid (317 mmol) was diluted with oxalyl chloride (130 mL) and the resulting solution was heated at reflux for 18 h. The volatiles were removed by evaporation to provide 2-chloronicotinoyl chloride in 98% yield as a white solid.

Workup

  1. temperaturethe resulting solution was heated
  2. temperatureat reflux for 18 h
  3. customThe volatiles were removed by evaporation
