5-Chloro-2-methoxybenzoic acid Use and Manufacturing

To a solution of Methyl 5-chloro-2- methoxybenzoate (2.0g, 0.01 mol) [Alfa Aesar] in ethanol (60 mL) was added in one portion 1M aqueous sodium hydroxide (60 mL, 0, 06 mol) and the mixture was stirred at ambient temperature for 4 hr. Thin layer chromatography indicated that the reaction was complete. Concentrated the mixture in vacuo to remove the ethanol and extracted the aqueous residue with ethyl acetate. Chilled the aqueous phase in an ice bath and adjusted the pH to 2 with concentrated aqueous hydrogen chloride. After stirring in an ice bath for 1 hr., the resulting solid was filtered, washed with water and air dried to give 1.4g (74.9percent) of 3-chloro- 2-methoxy benzoic acid as a white solid MS: m/z 185.1 (MHGeneral procedure: K
