Procedure
Ethylene oxide (16 mL, 330 mmol) was added rapidly via a cold syringe to a solution of methyl 3-aminobenzoate (5.0g, 33 mmol), glacial acetic acid (40 mL), and water (40 mL) with stirring at 0 ° C. under nitrogen beneath a dry ice/acetone condenser. After 1 h, the cold bath was removed and the reaction stirred for 43 h at room temperature. Water was added, and the mixture neutralized by adding solid sodium bicarbonate portionwise. After a series of EtOAc/H2O extractions, the crude product was isolated by concentration under reduced pressure. Purification by chromatography on silica gel, eluting with 0% to 5% MeOH in EtOAc, and evaporation yielded an oil (6.9 g). IR(neat): cm-1 3340, 1718. 1H NMR(300 MHz, CDCl3): 7.38-6.87 (m, 4H), 3.90-3.85 (m, 7H), 3.65-3.59 (m, 4H), 3.27 (s, 2H). HR-MS: Calc'd. 240.1236, Found 240.1237.
