Participants

Reaction Steps

Ethyl N-chloroacetyl-4-aminomethylsalicylate (0.11 g, 0.40 mmoles) was dissolved in acetone (5 mL) and sodium iodide (0.06 g, 0.40 mmoles) was added. The solution was refluxed for 2.5 hours, then cooled to room temperature and filtered. The filtrate was evaporated to dryness to afford a white solid of ethyl N-iodoacetyl-4-aminomethylsalicylate (0.19 g, 100% yield) (m.p. 105°-108° C.).
