Procedure

A mixture of N-methylaniline (25 g) and ethyl 6-bromohexanoate (50 g) was stirred at 120° C. for 24 hours. After cooling, an aqueous sodium bicarbonate was added to make the mixture alkaline. Then the resulting mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate, washed with brine and dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate. The mixture was concentrated under reduced pressure and distilled to obtain ethyl 6-(N-methylanilino)hexanoate (40.5 g).
