General description
Methyl 2-chlorobenzoate, a methyl 2-halobenzoate, is an ester. It can be synthesized from 2-chlorobenzoyl chloride. Its reduction with NaBH4 in diglyme at 162°C affords 2-chlorobenzyl alcohol.
Application
Methyl 2-chlorobenzoate may be used in the synthesis of various quinazolinone derivatives. It was used as starting reagent in the synthesis of 2-chlorobenzohydrazide.

In attempt to find new pharmacologically active molecules, we report here the synthesis and in vitro antimicrobial activity of various 3-(1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl)-quinazolin-4(3H)-ones. The antimicrobial activity of title compounds were examined against two gram positive bacteria (S. aureus, S. pyogenes), two gram
