Reaction Steps
A well stirred mixture of methyl 3-(2-hydroxybenzoyl)propionate (63.3 g, 0.3 mole), potassium carbonate (48.4 g, 0.35 mole), epibromohydrin (117 ml, 1.4 mole), and dry ethyl methyl ketone (2000 ml) was heated under reflux for 28 hours. Evaporation of the filtered solution under reduced pressure gave methyl 3-[2-(2,3-epoxypropoxy)benzoyl]propionate (83 g, 100%).
