反応手順

To a solution of salicylic acid (20 g, 145 mmol) in water (200 mL) is added carefully sodium hydroxide (60 g, 1.45 mol) followed by chloroacetic acid (27 g, 290 mmol). The mixture is refluxed for 5 d, cooled to room temperature and the precipitate is filtered and dried. Trituration with hexanes yielded the title compound (6.84 g, 24%) as a pink solid. 1H NMR (400 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ 7.65-7.66 (dd, 1H, J=8.0, 2.0 Hz), 7.45-7.47 (dd, 1H, J=8.0, 2.0 Hz), 6.97-7.05 (m, 2H), 4.77 (s, 2H).
