Reaktionsschritte

A mixture of methyl-5-chlorosalicylate (19.5 g, 105 mmol), 2-chloroethyl p-toluenesulfonate (19.3 mL, 107 mmol) and K2CO3 (28.9 g, 210 mmol) in 105 mL of N,N-dimethylformamide was warmed to 50° C. and allowed to stir for 18 hours. The mixture was cooled to ambient temperature, diluted with 25 mL of ethyl acetate and 25 mL of H2O. The layers were separated and the organic layer was dried over anhydrous Na2SO4, filtered and concentrated under reduced pressure. Purification via column chromatography (SiO2, 75% hexanes in ethyl acetate) afforded the title compound. MS (DCI/NH3) m/z 249 (M+H)+, 266 (M+NH4)+.
