Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

To a stirred solution of 2-(2,3-dihydrobenzo[b][1,4]dioxin-6-yl)-2-methoxyacetic acid (18.3 mmol) in dry MeOH was added sulfuric acid (2.5 mL) dropwise and heated at 90° C. Stirring was then continued for 3 hours. The reaction mixture was then cooled and poured into saturated aqueous NaHCO3 and extracted with EtOAc. The combined organic fractions were dried over Na2SO4, filtered, and concentrated under reduced pressure to yield an oil (3.7 g) that was not further purified.
