Abstract
The invention relates to a method for selective halogenation of 6-hydroxy picoline derivatives such as 6-hydroxy picolinic acid and 6-hydroxy picoline. When 6-hydroxy picolinic acid is halogenated by allowing it to stand in an aqueous mineral acid solution for a sufficient period to replace the halo substituent with a hydroxy substituent, and then halogenated, an improved yield of the 3-halo, 6-hydroxy picolinic acid to the 5-halo 6-hydroxy picolinic acid is obtained.
