Reaction Steps

A resealable tube was charged with methyl 6-hydroxy-4-iodo-1-naphthoate (0.302 g, 0.920 mmol), toluene (5.0 ml), tetramethyltin (0.40 g, 0.30 mL, 2.2 mmol), and tetrakis(triphenylphosphine)palladium (0) (0.042 g, 0.036 mmol). The system was purged with argon and the tube was sealed. The mixture stirred at 90° C. for 24 h and was cooled to RT. The mixture was partitioned between EtOAc and water. The aqueous phase was separated and extracted with EtOAc. The combined organic phases were washed with brine, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, filtered and concentrated to afford an orange solid. This material was purified via column chromatography on silica gel (eluting with 0-50% ethyl acetate-hexane) to afford methyl 6-hydroxy-4-methyl-1-naphthoate as an orange brown solid. MS (ESI, pos. ion) m/z: 217.1 (M+H). Mass Calc'd for C13H12O3: 216.
