Reaktionsschritte

To a suspension of 3-sulfo-benzoic acid (1 g) and potassium carbonate (1.2 g) in dimethylacetamide (10 ml) was added iso-butyl iodide (0.65 ml). The mixture was heated by microwaves (600W) at 150° C. for 15 minutes. The reaction mixture was partitioned between water (100 ml) and ethyl acetate (100 ml), the aqueous layer was separated, acidified to pH 1 with HCl (2N) and extracted with ethyl acetate (100 ml). The extract was evaporated to leave a residue which was purified by flash chromatography (Biotage 12S eluting with ethyl acetate:hexane:acetic acid, 29:70:1) to give the title product as a white solid (0.34 g).
