Procedure

Stir powdered methylenedioxy cinnamic acid (19.2g, 210mmol) in glacial acetic acid (200mL) at room temperature while adding a solution of bromine (16g, 100mol) in acetic acid (50mL) over 30 minutes. Stir the homogeneous yellow solution for 15 minutes and add a solution of sodium cyabiborohydride (20g) in water (50mL) over 30 minutes. Stir for 48 hours at room temperature. Add water (70mL) and stir for an additional 2 hours. Filter and wash the filtercake with acetic acid/water. Evaporate the solvent in vacuo and partition the residue between chloroform and water. Dry the organic phase (MgSO4) and evaporate the solvent in vacuo. Redissolve the residue in chloroform, filter and evaporate the solvent in vacuo to give 3-(3,4-methylenedioxyphenyl)-2-bromopropionic acid as a crystalline solid (15.1g).
