A new method of preparation of α-chloroisovaleric acid in excellent yield (78%) has been discovered as a result of chlorination of isovaleric acid with a mixture of gaseous oxygen and chlorine in the presence of chlorosulfuric acid and chloranil at 140° C. The effects of reaction conditions on the yield and conversion were discussed.
