The reaction mixture is heated to 60° C. and stirred at that temperature for 4 hours. After cooling to room temperature the reaction mixture is diluted with ethyl acetate and washed with water. The organic layer is dried over MgSO4, filtered and concentrated. Flash chromatography (10% ethyl acetate/hexane) provides methyl 2-allyloxy-4-acetylaminobenzoate which can be used directly in the next step.
