Reaction Steps

Methyl3-hydroxy-4-aminobenzoate (ABCR: 100 mg, 0.60 mmol) & caesium carbonate (396 mg, 1.22 mmol) were taken up in acetone (4 mL) and 2-iodopropane (90 μl, 0.90 mmol) added and reaction heated in microwave (CEM discover; 150 W) to 120° C. and held for 30 mins A further aliquot of 2-iodopropane (90 μl, 0.90 mmol) was added and reaction heated again to 120° C. in microwave, holding for a further 30 mins
