Microwave-assisted synthesis presents an expedient approach for the conversion of benzanilide into benzoic acid, a key organic compound with diverse applications. In this study, we investigate the microwave-assisted transformation of benzanilide to benzoic acid using concentrated sulfuric acid as the catalyst. The reaction was conducted under controlled microwave irradiation conditions, optimizing parameters such as temperature, reaction time, and reagent concentration to maximize yield and purity. The efficiency and selectivity of the microwave-assisted synthesis route highlight its potential for scalable production of benzoic acid with reduced reaction times and environmental impact compared to conventional methods. This methodology offers a promising avenue for the sustainable synthesis of benzoic acid, facilitating its utilization in pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and industrial sectors. Microwave heating provided precise control over the reaction temperature and ensured uniform heating throughout the reaction mixture, resulting in accelerated reaction rates and decreased response times in comparison to traditional heating techniques. Furthermore, the scalability of the microwave-assisted synthesis was evaluated, indicating its potential for large-scale production. The environmentally friendly nature of microwave heating, coupled with the efficiency of the catalytic system, makes this method an attractive alternative to conventional synthesis routes for benzoic acid. Overall, this study highlights the feasibility and usefulness of microwave-aided synthesis for the production of benzoic acid, with implications for both academic research and industrial applications.
