Reaction Steps

In a manner analogous to the preparation of N2,N4-bis[4-(2-methyl-1,2,3,4-tetrazol-5-yl)methyleneoxyphenyl]-5-fluoro-2,4-pyrimidinediamine, 2-methoxy-4-nitrobenzoic acid (1 g, 5 mmol), potassium carbonate (1.4 g, 10 mmol) and iodomethane (0.47 mL, 7.5 mmol) gave methyl 2-methoxy-4-nitrobenzoate (820 mg, 77%) as a white solid.
