Reaction Steps

(4-{[2-(Methoxycarbonyl)benzyl]oxy}phenyl)acetic acid (50 mg, 0.166 mmol) was dissolved in DCM (2 ml), N-hexylbenzylamine (38.2 mg, 0.2 mmol) was added, then EDC (38.3 mg, 0.2 mmol) was added and then DMAP (24.4 mg, 0.2 mmol) was added. The mixture was stirred at room temperature overnight. 1% HCl (1 ml) and water (1 ml) were added into the mixture. The two phases were separated by using a Whatman Filter Tube. The obtained organic solution was evaporated in vacuum and the oil product (71 mg) was left. It was then used directly in next step.
