반응 단계

A mixture of diethyl 1,3,5-benzenetricarboxylate (5.2 g) and borane methylsulfide complex (6.1 g) is stirred in THF (150 mL) at 20-25 degrees C. overnight. The mixture is then treated with methanol, concentrated to dryness, and chouromatographed (silica gel) to give diethyl 5-(hydroxymethyl)isophthalate. Diethyl 5-(hydroxymethyl)isophthalate (3.4 g) is hydroyzed in ethanol and water with lithium hydroxide monohydrate (0.57 g) at 20-25 degrees C. for 3.5 hours at which time the solvents are removed under reduced pressure. Water (100 mL) is added and the mixture is acidified to pH=4 with concentrated hydrochloric acid. The mixture is extracted with ethyl acetate and dried over magnesium sulfate, filtered, and concentrated to give 3-(ethoxycarbonyl)-5-(hydroxymethyl)benzoic acid, high resolution MS MH+=225.0769. 3-(Ethoxycarbonyl)-5-(hydroxymethyl)benzoic acid (2.3 g), EDC (3.0 g), 1-HOBT (2.1 g), diisopropylethylamine (2.7 mL), dipropyl amine (2.8 mL), and DMF (50 mL) are stirred at 20-25 degrees C. overnight. The mixture is then partitioned between ethyl acetate, water, and saline. The organic phase is separated and dried over magnesium sulfate, filtered, and concentrated. Chromatography (silica gel) gives ethyl 3-[(dipropylamino)carbonyl]-5-(hydroxymethyl)benzoate, NMR (CDCl3) δ 0.77, 1.0, 1.4, 1.6, 1.7, 3.2, 3.5, 4.4, 4.8, 7.6, 8.0 and 8.1.
