To a mixture of methyl 2-hydroxy-3-[(phenylcarbonyl)oxy]benzoate (21.2 g, 78 mmol), potassium carbonate (21.5 g, 156 mmol) and acetonitrile (370 mL) was added 1-bromo-2-(methyloxy)ethane (12.1 mL, 116 mmol). The resulting mixture was heated at reflux 18 hour. After cooling to room temperature, the reaction mixture was diluted with ethyl acetate (400 mL), filtered and concentrated. The residue was then diluted with ethyl acetate (200 mL) and washed with 5% sodium hydroxide solution, water and brine (100 mL each), dried over sodium sulfate, filtered, concentrated, and the residue was chromatographed (silica gel, 30-50% ethyl acetate-hexane) to provide methyl 2-{[2-(methyloxy)ethyl]oxy}-3-[(phenylcarbonyl)oxy]benzoate, (22.5 g, 68 mmol, 87% yield). 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3): 8.25-8.23 (d, d, 2H), 7.76-7.74 (d, d, 1H), 7.68-7.64 (d, d, 1H), 7.55-7.51 (d, d, 2H), 7.40-7.38 (d, d, 1H), 7.23-7.19 (d, d, 1H), 4.17-4.15 (m, 2H), 3.92 (s, 3H), 3.58-3.55 (m, 2H), 3.14 (s, 3H).
