Reaktionsschritte

To a solution of 4-methoxy-5-methyl-2-nitro phenol (8.0 g) in methylene chloride (80 mL) was added p-toluenesulfonyl chloride (9.15 g) at room temperature under nitrogen atmosphere. The mixture was cooled to 0° C. To this mixture triethylamine (4.86 g) was added and stirred for 2 h. Then the reaction mixture was poured into water (150 mL) and extracted with methylene chloride (150 mL). The organic layer was washed with water (100 mL) and saturated brine (50 mL), dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by column chromatography over silica gel using hexane/ethyl acetate (9:1) to give the title compound (12.0 g).
