Procedure

A solution of tert-butyl 4-formyl-3-hydroxybenzoate (1.2 g, 5.40 mmol) and potassium carbonate (1726 mg, 12.4 mmol) in DMF (17 ml) was admixed dropwise with ethyl bromoacetate (0.56 ml, 5.0 mmol) and stirred at 80° C., for 6 h. Then ethyl bromoacetate (0.28 ml, 2.5 mmol) was added again and the mixture was stirred at 80° C. overnight. After cooling to room temperature, the reaction mixture was added to ice-water and extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic phases were dried over sodium sulphate, filtered and concentrated to dryness under reduced pressure.
