Reaction Steps

Dry HCl gas was passed (until the clear solution observed) to a solution of methyl 5-(3-morpholinopropoxy)-2-amino-4-methoxy-benzoate (1.0 g, 3.0 mmol) in acetonitrile (16 mL) for 30 min at rt. The reaction mixture was refluxed for 3 h and attained to rt. The solution was poured into ice cooled water and basified with ammonia solution. The solution was extracted with EtOAc (3×100 mL) and the combined EtOAc layer was washed water, brine and dried over sodium sulfate. The solution was filtered and evaporated the solvent to give the product as an off-white color solid (1.0 g, 98%), mp 236-238° C. 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3): δ 11.60 (1H, br s), 7.59 (1H, s), 7.08 (1H, s), 4.23 (2H, t, J=6.6 Hz), 3.97 (3H, s), 3.73 (4H, t, J=4.6 Hz), 2.56 (2H, t, J=7.0 Hz), 2.56 (3H, s), 2.48 (4H, t, J=4.4 Hz), 2.09 (2H, pentet, J=6.8 Hz); LC-MS (positive ion mode): m/z 334 (M+H)+.
