2-Bromo-6-nitro-phenol 1b (46.55 g, 0.214 mol) was dissolved in 500 mL of acetone followed by addition of potassium carbonate (35.36 g, 0.256 mol) and iodomethane (20.1 mL, 0.32 mol). The reaction mixture was heated to reflux at 70° C. for 40 hours. The reaction was monitored by TLC until the disappearance of the starting materials. The reaction mixture was concentrated under reduced pressure and diluted with 1300 mL of ethyl acetate and 500 mL of water. The aqueous layer was extracted with ethyl acetate (300 mL×2). The combined organic extracts were washed with 4 N hydrochloric acid and saturated aqueous sodium bicarbonate and then dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, filtered and concentrated under reduced pressure. The resulting residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography to obtain the title compound 1-bromo-2-methoxy-3-nitro-benzene 1c (44.59 g, yield 90.0%) as a brown solid.
