Reaction Steps

Methyl bromoacetate (10.7 g, 70 mmole), 3-(ethylamino) phenol from above (4.8 g, 35 mmole), and ethyl diisopropyl amine (4.45 g, 35 mmole) were combined in 25 ml of toluene. The mixture was heated at 100° C. for 30 min. and then evaporated under vacuum and chromatographed on a silica gel column using 5% (v/v) methanol/methylene chloride. The combined fractions were washed with saturated sodium bicarbonate and neutralized with 0.1N HCL. The combined fractions were dried over Na2SO4 and evaporated to give 7.24 g of N-ethyl-N-3-hydroxyphenyl glycine methyl ester.
