Participants

Reaction Steps

0.6 g 3-amino-4-methoxybenzoic acid (1.0 g, 6 mmol) is dissolved in dry THF (tetrahydrofuran) in a 25 ml flask, triethylamine (1.2 ml, 12 mmol) is subsequently added to obtain transparent yellow solution. The mixture is stirred under nitrogen protection, propionyl chloride (0.78 ml, 9 mmol) is added into the flask in an ice-water bath. After finishing addition of propionyl chloride the mixture is naturally raised to room temperature. The reacted mixture is filtered, the filtrate is evaporated to dryness and separated using a silica column to obtain 3-propionamido-4-methoxybenzoic acid 1.3 g (yield: 67%).
