Propose a mechanism for the reaction of benzoic acid with oxalyl chloride. This mechanismbegins like the thionyl chloride reaction, to give a reactive mixed anhydride. Nucleophilicacyl substitution by chloride ion gives a tetrahedral intermediate that eliminates a leavinggroup, which then fragments into carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, and chloride ion.
