Reaction Steps

Methyl 2,5-dihydroxybenzoate (1 g) is dissolved in 10 mL of n-hexylamine. After overnight heating in an oil bath (60° C.), the mixture is cooled to room temperature. n-Hexylamine is removed under reduced pressure. The residue is dissolved in ethyl acetate and further extracted with 1 N HCl. The organic layer is extracted with saturated sodium bicarbonate and dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate. Solvent is removed under reduced pressure to yield the product as an off-white powder.
