Procedure

Potassium carbonate (57.8 g) was added to a solution mixture of 5-nitro-isoindole-1,3-dione (26.2 g) and bromo-acetic acid ethyl ester (25.1 g) in actone (500 ml). The resulting mixture was refluxed overnight (18 h). After cooling, reaction mixture was filtered and rinsed with ethyl acetate. Filtrate was concentrated and the residue was triturated with ether (200 ml). Solid was collected and rinsed with ether. Dried in vacuo to give the title compound 231.9 g. 1H NMR (200 MHz, CDCl3) δ 8.69 (m, 2H), 8.07 (d, J=8.2 Hz, 1H), 4.48 (s, 2H), 4.24 (q, J=7.0 Hz, 2H), 1.30 (t, J=7.0 Hz, 3H).
