Reaction Steps

1.2 92.6 g of potassium carbonate are added to a solution of 80 g of methyl 5-bromo-2,4-dihydroxybenzoate in 1 l of acetonitrile, and 77 ml of benzyl bromide are added dropwise. The mixture is heated for 3 hours and cooled, the solvent is removed, and the residue is subjected to conventional work-up, giving 150 g of methyl 5-bromo-2,4-dibenzyloxybenzoate (crude product).
