Reaktionsschritte

A solution of bromoacetyl bromide (209 g) in dichloromethane (200 ml) was added dropwise to a cooled (ice bath) solution of methyl N-methylanthranilate (168 g) in dichloromethane (1400 ml). A solution of sodium hydroxide (59 g) in water (400 ml) was added dropwise to this ice cold solution then after addition the reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 20 h. The organic phase was separated and washed with 1M hydrochloric acid (500 ml), brine (300 ml), saturated sodium hydrogen carbonate solution (400 ml), dried (Na2SO4) then evaporated to afford the required product as a solid (255 g, 92%). Mp 80°-82° C. 1H NMR (360 MHz, CDCl3) δ 3.23 (3H, s), 3.54 (1H, d, J=11 Hz), 3.60 (1H, d, J=11 Hz), 3.90 (3H, s), 7.40 (1H, d, J=8 Hz), 7.51 (1H, dd, J=8 and 8 Hz), 7.65 (1H, dd, J=8 and 8 Hz), 8.04 (1H, d, J=8 Hz).
