Process for preparing 2,3,5,6-tetrafluorobenzoic acid and the compounds 2,3,5,6-tetrachloro-4-trifluoromethylbenzoyl chloride and 2,3,5,6-tetrafluoro-4-trifluoromethylbenzoyl fluoride |
| abstract |
2,3,5,6-Tetrafluorobenzoic acid is produced from 4-trifluoromethyl-benzoyl fluoride by chlorination, fluorination, hydrolysis, decarboxylation and saponification. The new compounds 2,3,5,6-tetrachloro-4-trifluoromethyl-benzoyl chloride and 2,3,5,6-tetrafluoro-4-trifluoromethyl-benzoyl fluoride appear as intermediates. |
