Procedure

To a saturated solution of ammonia in ethanol (170 ml) was added methyl 4-bromomethyl-3-chlorobenzoate from Example A1 (5.5 g, 20.9 mmol). The mixture was stirred at room temperature for 1 hr and then concentrated in vacuo. The residue was triturated with diethyl ether and the resultant white crystals were fiflered off and washed with more diethyl ether. To a solution of this solid in water (100 ml) were added solutions of (BOC)2O (5.0 g, 23.0 mmol) in dioxan (100 ml) and sodium hydroxide (1.86 g, 46.0 mmol) in water (100 ml). The mixture was stirred at room temperature for 18 h and then concentrated in vacuo. The aqueous residue was acidified with citric acid and extracted with chloroform/IPA. The organic layer was washed with water, dried over MgSO4, and concentrated in vacuo to give a white solid; yield 2.8 g (67%).
