Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of 2,3-dichloro-4-fluorobenzoic acid (0.200 g, 0.92 mmol) in dichloromethane (˜4 ml) was treated with 1-hydroxybenzotriazole (0.162 g, 1.2 mmol), N-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)-N′-ethylcarbodiimide hydrochloride (0.230 g, 1.2 mmol), and triethylamine (0.56 ml, 4.0 mmol) under argon at room temperature. The mixture was stirred at room temperature for 40 minutes then treated with) 32% aqueous ammonium hydroxide (0.088 ml) and stirred overnight at room temperature. The mixture was diluted with dichloromethane and washed sequentially with water and then with saturated aqueous sodium hydrogen carbonate. The organic layer was separated and dried over sodium sulphate then concentrated to give 2,3-dichloro-4-fluorobenzamide (0.156 g) as a white solid that was used without further purification.
