2-Halobenzamides

Introduction

2-Halobenzamides are important precursors in organic synthesis to construct various heterocyclic compounds. They exhibit strong intermolecular N–H···O=C hydrogen bonding[1a] and therefore, most of them are crystalline solids in nature and can be stored for a long period of time. Most of the 2-halobenzamides are soluble in organic solvents, for example, in dichloromethane, chloroform, acetone, methanol, etc.
