Abstract
The carbonylation reaction of 2,3-dichlorobiphenyl proceeds with a substitution of the chlorine atom in position 3 and results in the formation of 2-chloro-3-phenylbenzoic acid. The structure of this acid is revealed by single crystal XRD. It is determined by steric interactions of substituents in positions 2,4,2′, and 6′, a stable carboxyl supramolecular synthon, and weak interactions with the participation of the carbonyl oxygen atom and the chlorine atom.
