Procedure

2,3-dichloro-1-fluoro-4-methylbenzene (0.090 g, 0.5 mmol) was added to a stirred mixture of potassium dichromate (0.284 g, 1 mmol) in acetic acid (1 ml). 97% Sulphuric acid (0.5 ml) was then added slowly to the mixture which was subsequently heated at 100° C. for 2 hrs. After cooling to room temperature, water and ice were added and the green solid thus obtained was filtered off and washed with cold water to afford 2,3-dichloro-4-fluorobenzoic acid (0.056 g, 0.27 mmol) as a white solid.
