Reaction Steps

A solution of 2,4,6-trichlorobenzoic acid (1.0 g, 4.0 mmol) in SOCl2 (5 mL) was heated to reflux for 30 min under nitrogen atmosphere. The reaction was concentrated under reduced pressure to give 2,4,6-trichlorobenzoyl chloride (900 mg, 93% yield), which was used in the next step without further purification.
