Procedure
Ethyl 2-(3-(cyclopropylmethoxy)-4-nitrophenyl)acetate (2.2 g, 7.8 mmol) was dissolved in 20 mL anhydrous DMF and NaH (60% wt. in oil, 0.189 g, 7.8 mmol) was added at 0° C. The reaction mixture was stirred for 0.5 h at 25° C. and isobutyl bromide (1.08 g, 7.8 mmol) was added drop wise at 0° C. The reaction mixture was stirred at 0° C. for 1 h and saturated NH4Cl solution (10 mL) was added. The reaction mixture was extracted with EtOAc (3×20 mL) and the combined organic phases were washed with water (3×20 mL) and brine (20 mL), and dried over MgSO4, filtered and concentrated under reduced pressure to give ethyl 2-(3-(cyclopropylmethoxy)-4-nitrophenyl)-4-methylpentanoate (2.06 g) of colorless oil.
