Reaktionsschritte

To methyl 5-hydroxy-2-nitrobenzoate (1.08 g, 5.5 mmol) in DMF (50 mL) was added potassium carbonate (1.52 g, 11 mmol) followed by 1-bromo-2-methoxyethane (1.55 mL, 16.4 mmol) and the mixture heated at 60° C. overnight. After cooling to room temperature, the reaction was diluted with H2O, extracted with EtOAc, and the organic layer washed with H2O and brine, dried over MgSO4, filtered, concentrated in vacuo, and purified by column chromatography (12-100% EtOAc/hexanes) to give methyl 5-(2-methoxyethoxy)-2-nitrobenzoate (1.08 g, 4.2 mmol, 77%). 1H NMR (300 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ 8.13 (d, 1H), 7.31 (s, 1H), 7.29 (d, 1H), 4.29 (dd, 2H), 3.86 (s, 3H), 3.68 (dd, 2H), 3.31 (s, 3H); LC-MS (ESI) m/z 256 (M+H)+.
