Reaction Steps

The latter nitro derivative (17.0 g) in 500 ml of methanol was reduced at room temperature and pressure with hydrogen using 4 g of 10% palladium on carbon as catalyst for 6 hr and filtered. The solvent was removed to give 14 g of 2-amino-3,4,5-trimethoxybenzoic acid methyl ester as an oil.
