A mixture of 1.7 g (8.6 mmol) of 3-hydroxy-5-nitrobenzoic acid methyl ester [prepared as described by D. J. Abraham, D. M. Gazze, P. E. Kennedy and M.Mokotoff, J. Med. Chem. 27, 1549 (1984)], 3.2 g (9.5 mmol) of 1-bromooctadecane and 1.8 g (12.9 mmol) of potassium carbonate in 35 ml ofanhydrous DMF was stirred and heated at 75° for 25 hours. After cooling, 150 ml of methylene chloride was added and the insoluble salts were removed by filtration. The filtrate was concentrated at reduced pressure to a solid which was purified by HPLC using 30% methylene chloride-hexane to give 3.57 g (92% yield, mp 64°-66°) of 3-nitro-5-(octadecyloxy) benzoic acid methyl ester.
