Reaction Steps

In 15% hydrogen chloride-ethanol, p-aminophenylacetic acid was refluxed. After removal of ethanol by distillation, the residue was extracted with ethyl acetate and the extract was washed successively with water, saturated sodium bicarbonate solution and water and dried. The ethyl acetate was then distilled off to give p-aminophenylacetic acid ethyl ester.
