Procedure
A solution of sodium chlorite (15.7 g, 80%, 0.139 mol) in 45 mL of water was added rapidly to a warm solution of 2,6-dimethoxy-1-naphthalenecarboxaldehyde [25.76 g, 0.119 mol, described by N. P. Buu-Hoi et al, J. Chem. Soc., 2776 (1955)], resorcinol (17.8 g, 0.162 mol) and acetic acid (0.25 g) in tert-butanol (115 mL) and p-dioxane (95 mL). The reaction temperature was maintained at about 85° C. for 10 minutes then allowed to cool and the mixture was concentrated under vacuum. The residue was partitioned between 1M KOH and dichloromethane. The phases were separated and the aqueous solution was acidified with 6N HCl and washed three times with dichloromethane. The acidic dichloromethane extracts were combined and washed with water and then with saturated sodium chloride and then dried over Na2SO4. After filtration and concentration, the residue was recrystallized from ethanol-water to give 23.1 g (84% yield) of 2,6-dimethoxy-1-naphthalenecarboxylic acid as an off-white solid, m.p. 153°-155° C.
