Procedure

Under argon atmosphere, 2.84 g of 4-methoxysalicylic acid was dispersed in 45 ml of methylene chloride, and the dispersion was cooled to -15° C. To the dispersion was added 3.76 g of triethylamine and 3.77 g of ethyl chlorocarbonate, and the mixture was agitated for 1.5 hour. To the mixture was added a solution of 1.56 g of cysteamine in 5 ml of methylene chloride, and the mixture was agitated at -15° C. for 2 hours. The reaction mixture was poured into 1N aqueous hydrochloric acid, and extracted with methylene chloride. The organic layer was washed with saturated aqueous solution of sodium chloride, and dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate. The solvent was distilled off in evacuated atomosphere, and the residue was subjected to column chromatography using silica gel. There was obtained 4.50 g of N-(2-ethoxycarbonyloxy-4-methoxybenzoyl)cysteamine.
