Procedure

To 1.16 g of 5-acetylsalicylic acid, methyl ester in 10 mL of N,N-dimethylformamide is added 1 g of chloroacetic acid, methyl ester and 1.2 g of potassium carbonate. After stirring this mixture at ambient temperature for 16 hours the reaction is filtered, diluted with ethyl acetate, and washed once with water and twice with brine. The ethyl acetate is dried with magnesium sulfate, filtered, and evaporated to give 5-acetyl-2-(carboxymethoxy)benzoic acid as a crude product. Crystallization from methanol at -15° C. gives 0.6 g of white crystals. 1H-NMR (CDCl3): 8.5 ppm (1H, d), 8.1 ppm (1H, dd), 6.9 ppm (1H, d), 4.8 ppm (2H, s), 4.0 ppm (3H, s), 3.8 ppm (3H, s), 2.6 ppm (3H, s). 450 mg of the above product is stirred in 1 mL of N,N-dimethylethylenediamine at ambient temperature for 16 hours. The reaction is then diluted with ethyl acetate and water. The water layer is extracted five times with ethyl acetate and the ethyl acetate from the various extractions is pooled, dried with magnesium sulfate, filtered, and evaporated to give 380 mg of 5-acetyl-2-[N-(2-dimethylaminoethyl)-3-carboxamidopropoxy]benzoic acid , methyl ester as a yellowish oil which is pure enough for further use. 1H-NMR (CDCl3): 8.6 ppm (1H, d), 8.2 ppm (1H, dd), 8.1 ppm (1H, br t), 7.0 ppm (1H, d), 4.7 ppm (2H, s), 4.0 ppm (3H, s), 3.5 ppm (2H, q), 2.7 ppm (3H, s), 2.6 ppm (2H, t), 2.3 ppm (6H, s).
