Procedure

5-(2-Chloro-4-trifluoromethylphenoxy)-2-nitrobenzoic acid (1.7 g, 0.0047 mole) is dissolved in methanol (25 ml) and sodium hydroxide (4.7 ml of 1N NaOH in methanol, 0.0047 mole) is added rapidly. The solvent is then removed in vacuo to give 1.9 g of product that decomposes at 217° C.

Workup

  1. customThe solvent is then removed in vacuo
