Reaction Steps

A solution of methyl 2-chloro-3-nitrobenzoate (53.5 g, 248 mmol), triethylamine (41.5 mL, 298 mmol) and 4-amino-1-butanol (45.7 mL, 496 mmol) in tetrahydrofuran (400 mL) was stirred for 60 h at 50° C. The mixture was diluted with water, concentrated in vacuo, extracted with ethyl acetate, washed with brine, dried over sodium sulfate, filtered and concentrated in vacuo. The residue was purified by flash column chromatography on silica gel eluting with ethyl acetate (short column) to give the title compound as a yellow oil (66.5 g, 248 mmol, 100%).
