What are the synthesis methods of Methyl 2-iodobenzoate?

There are many different methods for preparing methyl 2-iodobenzoate. One of the common ones is to start with 2-benzoic acid, and first make it esterified with methanol under the catalysis of sulfuric acid to form methylbenzoate. In this step, 2-benzoic acid, methanol and an appropriate amount of concentrated sulfuric acid are co-placed in a reactor, and when heated for a few refluxes, the reaction is completed, the sulfuric acid is neutralized in alkali solution, and purified by separation, distillation, etc., to obtain a pure methylbenzoate.
Then, the methylbenzoate and iodine are reacted under the action of an appropriate catalyst. Commonly used catalysts such as iron powder, potassium iodide, etc. In the reaction vessel, methylbenzoate, iodine and catalyst are added to control the temperature and reaction time. During the reaction, iodine atoms replace hydrogen atoms at specific positions on the benzene ring to form methyl 2-iodobenzoate. After the reaction is completed, it is separated and purified by methods, such as column chromatography, recrystallization, etc., to obtain high-purity products.
There is another method, which can first halogenate the benzene ring of benzoic acid, introduce iodine atoms, and then perform esterification reaction. That is, benzoic acid and iodine react in the presence of catalyst to obtain 2-iodobenzoic acid, followed by esterification of 2-iodobenzoic acid and methanol under acid catalysis, and finally obtain methyl 2-iodobenzoate. In this process, the precise control of the reaction conditions at each step is crucial, such as temperature, reactant ratio, reaction time, etc., all of which are related to the yield and purity of the product.
