To a mixture of 2-methoxy-4-methylbenzoic acid (20 g, 120.4 mmol), EDC (23.1 g, 120.4 mmol) and HOBt (16.3 g, 120.4 mmol) in dichloromethane (1 L) was added NH3 (7N in MeOH, 52 mL, 3 eq) dropwise. The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature overnight then washed successively with HCl (1N), saturated aq. NaHCO3, water and brine, dried over MgSO4, filtered and evaporated. The residue was recrystallized from ethyl acetate/hexane to give 16.5 gr of 2-methoxy-4-methylbenzamide (83% yield).
