Procedure

A solution of 4-amino-benzoic acid ethyl ester (17 g, 103 mmol) in dichloromethane (500 mL) and triethylamine (20.8 g, 28.5 mL, 206 mmol) was treated with dimethylaminopyridine (0.63 g, 5 mmol) and 4-benzyloxy-3-nitro-benzoyl chloride (30 g, 103 mmol). The mixture was stirred at room temperature overnight, while a thick white precipitate formed. The slurry was diluted with water (10 mL) and stirred vigorously, then filtered, washing with dichloromethane and water. The solid was dried under high vacuum to yield 4-(4-benzyloxy-3-nitro-benzoylamino)-benzoic acid ethyl ester as a white solid, 26.5 g (61%), MS (ISP): m/e=419.3 (M−H).
