Reaction Steps

To 2.00 g 1-bromo-naphthalene-2-carboxylic acid in 20 ml of dry methanol 5 ml of sulfuric acid were added. After 5 h at reflux, the reaction was poured onto ice-water, and the precipitated product was collected by filtration and washed until neutral. After recrystallization from heptane 1.90 g 1-bromo-naphthalene-2-carboxylic acid methyl ester were obtained.
