반응 단계

A mixture of 2-hydroxy-6-bromopyridine (1.3 g, 7.5 mmol), sodium hydroxide (0.36 g, 9.0 mmol) and 15-crown-5 (1 drop) in dry toluene (20 ml) were stirred at reflux for 1.5 hours. The toluene was removed under reduced pressure and the white salt residue was dissolved in dry DMF (10 ml). Methyl 2-chloromethylphenylacetate (1.0 g, 5 mmol) in dry DMF (10 ml) was added dropwise along with sodium iodide (10 mg). The mixture was stirred at 80° C. for 2 hours, poured into water and extracted with diethyl ether. The ether extracts were washed with water, dried and the ether removed in vacuo leaving an orange oil which was purified by column chromatography (silica eluted with 10% ethyl acetate in hexane) to give methyl 2-(6-bromopyrid-2-yloxymethyl)phenylacetate (0.86 g, 51%) (Compound No. 2 in Table 1) as an orange oil; 1H NMR (270 MHz)δ: 3.68(3H,s), 3.73(2H,s), 5.38(2H,s), 6.68(1H,d), 7.06(1H,d), 7.25-7.50(5H,m) ppm.
