Reaktionsschritte

To a suspension of 5-hydroxy-2-nitrobenzaldehyde (300 mg, 1.80 mmol), potassium carbonate (498 mg, 3.60 mmol), and tetrabutylammonium iodide (66 mg, 0.18 mmol) in 1.8 mL of dry N,N-dimethylformamide was added benzyl bromide (0.32 mL, 2.7 mmol) at 0° C. After being stirred at room temperature until the starting material disappeared (5 h), the reaction mixture was filtered to remove inorganic salts. The filtrate was diluted with diethyl ether, and the solution was washed with water, saturated NaHCO3 aqueous solution, brine, and dried over MgSO4. After filtration, the filtrate was concentrated in vacuo, and the residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (hexane/ethyl acetate=90/10 to 75/25) to obtain the title compound as a slightly yellow solid (405 mg, 87%).
