Procedure: Methyl 3,5-dichlorobenzoate (2-D) (1.07 g, 5.0 mmol) was suspended in a vigorously stirring solution of methylamine (40%/H2O, 5.0 mL). After heating gently for 10 min, the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 18 h. The mixture was extracted with methylene chloride and the extract dried (MgSO4) to provide 3,5-dichloro-N-methylbenzamide (2-E). After heating gently for 10 min The mixture was extracted with methylene chloride the extract dried (MgSO4)
