Procedure

Hydrogen chloride was bubbled into a gently boiling solution of 3-(4-chloro-2-hydroxybenzoyl)propionic acid (12.0 g, 0.053 mole) in dry ethanol (21.2 cc) until esterification was complete. The product crystallised from ether to give ethyl 3-(4-chloro-2-hydroxybenzoyl)propionate (13.29g, 98%, m.p. 68°-69°).
