Reaktionsschritte

Add a solution of NaOH pellets (3.66 g, 91.5 mmol) in methanol (200 mL) to dimethyl-5-bromoisophthalate (25 g) and stir the resulting solution overnight at room temperature. Add water (300 mL) and extract with dichloromethane (3×200 mL). Acidify the aqueous with 5 N HCl (20 mL), filter the precipitate and dry to give a mixture of the title compound and 5-bromo-isophthalic acid in about a 6:4 ratio by LCMS (18.2 g crude).
