Procedure

Under ice cooling, methanesulfonyl chloride (2.1 mL, 27 mmol) was added to a solution of 4-hydroxymethylbenzoic acid benzyl ester (Reference Compound No. 7-1, 6.0 g, 24.8 mmol) and triethylamine (7.6 mL, 54 mmol) in dichloromethane (60 mL), and then the reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 50 minutes. Brine (0.30 L) was added to the reaction solution, and the mixture was extracted with chloroform (0.15 L) four times. The organic layer was dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, and the solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure to give 5.8 g of the title reference compound as yellow oil. (Yield 73%)
