Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

NaOH (48.8 g, 1.22 mol, 2.0 eq) in H2O (1.26 L) was added to a solution of 3-bromo-4-(tert-butoxycarbonylamino-methyl)-benzoic acid methyl ester (210 g, 0.61 mol, 1.0 eq) in MeOH (1.26 L). The reaction mixture was stirred at 50° C. for 2 hrs. The reaction was cooled to room temperature and concentrated to half volume. The residue was acidified to pH 5 by adding 1M HCl solution. The resulting solid was collected and dried to give the title intermediate (200 g, 99.4% yield) as white solid.
