General description: Benzoyl chloride, an acid chloride, is a commonly used benzoylating agent. The arylation of 1,1- and 1,2-disubstituted activated alkenes using benzoyl chloride in the presence of palladium catalyst has been investigated.
Application: Benzoyl chloride may be used to synthesize:. 4-Methoxybenzophenone via acylation of anisole in the presence of cesium-substituted dodecatungstophosphoric acid (Cs2.5H0.5PW12O40) supported on K-10 clay.. Benzoylamino acids via acylation of amino acids in the presence of diisopropylethylamine.. p-, o-, m-Methylbenzophenones via benzoylation of toluene in the presence of Al-promoted sulfated zirconia catalysts.
