Benzene → HCID 21618736, compound

In an oven dried flask was added 2-fluoro-4-bromobenzoic acid (1.00 g, 4.25 mmol), thionyl chloride (0.77 mL, 0.010 mol) and a drop of DMF and the reaction was refluxed for 2 h. The excess thionyl chloride was then distilled off and the residual thionyl chloride was removed on the pump. Benzene (20 mL, 0.2 mol) and aluminum trichloride (0.676 g, 5.07 mmol) were added to the reaction mixture. The reaction mixture was stirred at room temp for 1 h. The crude reaction mixture was poured onto ice and conc. HCl (15 mL). The organic layer was separated and the aqueous layer extracted with EtOAc. The combined organic phases were washed with 5% aq NaOH solution, water and dried (Na2SO4). The organic phase was concentrated in vacuo to give a residue which was purified by silica gel chromatography, eluting with 2% EtOAc in hexane.
