    Abstract

    A scaleable process for the chlorination of 5-amino-2,4,6-triiodoisophthalic acid to the corresponding acid chloride, a building block for the synthesis of iodinated X-ray contrast agents, has been developed. Two dimeric byproducts have been isolated and assigned structures consistent with an amide and an anhydride. Hydrolysis of the N-sulfinyl intermediate and simultaneous crystallisation of the phthalic acid chloride have been optimised by applying fractional factorial design.
