Procedure
1.0 g (4.1 mmol) of 5-bromo-3-formyl-2-hydroxy-benzoic acid was dissolved in 100 mL of anhydrous THF under nitrogen. The solution was cooled in an ice-bath and 13.6 ml of a 3 M solution of methyl magnesium bromide was added. The mixture was stirred for 16 h, slowly warming to room temperature. The resulting solution was distributed between ethyl acetate and dilute aqueous hydrochloric acid. The aqueous layer was extracted with ethyl acetate and the combined organic phases were washed with brine, dried over sodium sulfate and evaporated to afford 1.09 g of 5-bromo-2-hydroxy-3-(1-hydroxy-ethyl)-benzoic acid as a yellow solid. 1H NMR (500 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ 7.76 (d, 1H), 7.72 (d, 1H), 4.98 (q, 1H), 1.30 (d, 3H), MS: m/z 258.9+261.0 (M+H+).
