Hydrochloric Acid → Methyl [2-(2-chloro-4-fluoro-5-methoxycarbonylaminophenoxy)phenoxy]acetate

Participants

Reaction Steps

Into a mixture of methyl [2-(5-amino-2-chloro-4-fluorophenoxy)phenoxy]acetate [Intermediate compound A3-22], methyl chloroformate and tetrahydrofuran is added dropwise pyridine, and the mixture is stirred at room temperature. Dilute hydrochloric acid is added to the reaction solution, and this is extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic layer is washed with saturated saline, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, and concentrated to obtain methyl [2-(2-chloro-4-fluoro-5-methoxycarbonylaminophenoxy)phenoxy]acetate [Intermediate compound A9-22].
