2-chlorobenzoic acid (C 6 H 4 ClCOOH) is produced by diazotization. 6.25 g of anthranilic acid (0-aminobenzoic acid, C 6 H 4 NH 2 COOH) is allowed to react with 3.5 g of sodium nitrite in hydrochloric acid solution, whereby diazonium (C 6 H 4 N 2 ClCOOH) is formed. 4.5 grams of Cu(I) chloride are dissolved in conc. hydrochloric acid and 5 mL of water, after which the diazonium solution is added, whereby 2-chlorobenzoic acid is formed. The acid is separated and purified by recrystallization. 3.02 grams of product is obtained. Calculate the yield.
