Reaktionsschritte

A mixture of methyl 2-(bromomethyl)-6-chlorobenzoate (4.0 g, 15.6 mmol), diethylamine (5 mL, 48.1 mmol), and potassium carbonate (4.3 g, 31.2 mmol) in acetone (60 mL) was stirred at room temperature for 2 days. The solid material was removed by filtration. The filtrate was recovered, evaporated, and dried in vacuo, affording methyl 2-chloro-6-[(diethylamino)methyl]benzoate (3.97 g, 99% yield), which was used without further purification.
