Reaction Steps

In a 50 mL volume glass flask equipped with a stirrer, a thermometer, a reflux condenser and a gas inlet were placed 2.04 g (6.90 mmol) of 5-methoxy-4-(3-chloropropoxy)-2-nitrobenzoic acid (purity: 99%) obtained in Reference Example III-8 and 40 mL of methanol. The resulting mixture was heated to 40° C. under stirring. To the mixture was added 0.2 g of 5 wt. % palladium/carbon (containing 49% water) at the same temperature. The resulting mixture was heated to the same temperature for 2 hours, while hydrogen was introduced into the mixture under atmospheric pressure at a rate of 50 mL/min. After the reaction was complete, the reaction mixture was filtered and the filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure, to precipitate a crystalline product. The crystalline product was dried under reduced pressure, to give 1.83 g (isolated yield: 97.0%, purity: 98% in terms of area percentage determined by high performance liquid chromatography) of 5-methoxy-4-(3-chloropropoxy)anthranilic acid as a white crystalline product.
