Procedure
A solution of 2,4-dihydroxybenzoic acid (5 g), anhydrous K2CO3 (40 g) and benzyl bromide (16 mL) in acetone (100 mL) was refluxed for 4 hours. After filtration of solid, the filtrate was concentrated. The residue was stirred at room temperature with KOH (6 g), and methanol (20 mL) for 4 hours, and neutralized with dilute HCl (pH 2). The solid thus formed was filtered and recrystallized from a methanol-chloroform mixture (3:1) to get 3.5 g of the product. Concentration of mother liquor gave an additional 1 g of the product.
