Formation of Acid Halides. Carboxylic acids react with thionyl chloride (SOCl2) to form acid chlorides. During the reaction the hydroxyl group of the carboxylic acid is converted to a chlorosulfite intermediate making it a better leaving group. The chloride anion produced during the reaction acts a nucleophile.4 days ago
