Description

Methyl 4-bromo-3-fluorobenzoate is a chemical compound that is used in the production of other chemicals. It reacts with methanol to produce an ester. To isolate the product, it undergoes filtration and then neutralization with sulphamic acid. This reaction is catalyzed by a catalyst such as manganese dioxide or platinum oxide. The reaction liquid is heated to produce a methyl ester from methyl bromide and 4-bromo-3-chlorobenzoic acid. This process involves dehydrating the ester by boiling off the water and then adding hydrochloric acid to convert it into an acid methyl ester.
