(2,4-Dichlorophenoxy)Acetic Acid → HCID 1019273, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To (2,4-dichloro-phenoxy)-acetic acid (110.6 mg, 0.5 mmol), 2-aminobenzoic acid methyl ester (151.2 mg, 1.0 mmol), and benzotriazole-1-yl-oxy-tris-pyrrolidino-phosphonium hexafluorophosphate (pybop) (520.3 g, 1.0 mmol) in DMF (5 mL) was added N,N-diisopropylethylamine, redistilled (DIPEA) (0.17 mL, 1.0 mmol). The mixture was stirred overnight and then partitioned between ethyl acetate and 10% HCl. The organic phase was washed with brine, dried (MgSO4 anh), and concentrated. The residue was purified by silica gel flash column chromatography (n-Hexane:Ethyl acetate:MeOH=6:3:1) to give 2-[2-(2,4-dichloro-phenoxy)-acetylamino]-benzoic acid methyl ester as a white solid (118.0 mg, 66.6% yield).
