Reaction Steps

By the method of Example 1, Step H, 10.0 g (0.0819 mole) of 3-hydroxybenzaldehyde and 16.0 g (0.0982 mole) of methyl 2-bromopropionate were reacted in the presence of 13.6 g (0.0983 mole) of anhydrous potassium carbonate in 50 mL of N,N-dimethylformamide, yielding 16.1 g of methyl 2-(3-formylphenoxy)propionate as an orange liquid. The NMR and IR spectra were consistent with the proposed structure.
