The resulting mixture was heated to 50° C. under stirring. To the mixture was added 0.5 g of 3 wt. % platinum sulfide/carbon (containing 65.7% water) at the same temperature. The resulting mixture was heated to the same temperature for one hour, while hydrogen was introduced to the mixture under atmospheric pressure at a rate of 50 mL/min. After the reaction was complete, the reaction mixture was filtered and the filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure, to precipitate a crystalline product. The crystalline product was dried under reduced pressure, to give 0.91 g (isolated yield: 93.0%, purity: 99% in terms of area percentage determined by high performance liquid chromatography) of methyl 5-methoxy-4-(2-chloroethoxy)-anthranilate as a white crystalline product.
