반응 조건

반응 단계

To a solution of 2-hydroxy-4-methylbenzoic acid (10.00 g, 65 mmol) in DMF (10 mL) was added K2CO3 (13.6 g, 98 mmol). The reaction mixture was stirred at 60° C. for 1 h. Methyl iodide (14.0 g, 98 mmol) was added to the reaction mixture and was stirred at 60° C. for 18 h. The reaction mass was quenched in water and concentrated. The reaction mass was extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was dried over anhydrous sodium sulphate and concentrated to afford 10.00 g of desired product. 1H NMR (300 MHz, DMSO d6): δ 2.34 (s, 3H), 3.74 (s, 3H), 3.79 (s, 3H), 6.81 (d, J=7.2 Hz, 1H), 6.97 (s, 1H), 7.56 (d, J=7.8 Hz, 1H); MS (m/z): 180.95 (M+H)+.
