반응 단계

The product was prepared by the alkylation of 4-nitro-3-methylphenol (15.3 g) with ethyl bromoacetate (16.7 g) in DMF (150 mL) in the presence of potassium carbonate (13.8 g) to afford ethyl 4-nitro-3-methylphenoxyacetate; hydrogenation of the latter (7.18 g, 0.03 mol) in ethanol (250 mL) in the presence of 5% palladium on carbon (2.1 g) to afford 6.20 g (99%) of ethyl 4-amino-3-methylphenoxyacetate as a brown oil; and treatment of the latter (6.2 g, 0.0296 mol) in CH2Cl2 (100 mL) with pyridine (10 mL), followed by methanesulfonylchloride (3.73 g, 0.033 mol) to afford 6.54 g (76.9%) of N-[4-(ethoxycarbonylmethoxy)-2-(methyl)phenyl]methanesulfonamide, m.p. 93°-94° C., after recrystallization from ethanol.
