Reaction Steps

Starting from 2,2′-dihydroxybenzophenone and ethyl 8-bromooctanoate, the title compound was prepared and then converted into the sodium salt as follows: the free acid (3.56 g, 9.99 mmol) was dissolved in 40 mL of isopropanol, and treated with sodium hydroxide solution (1.7 mL) prepared from of sodium hydroxide (0.90 g, 22.5 mmol) and water (3.7 mL). Isopropanol and MTBE were added causing a solid to precipitate. Heating this mixture caused most of the solid to dissolve. The remaining solids were removed by filtration. The off-white solid that formed upon cooling with dry ice was isolated by filtration and dried under reduced pressure.
