Procedure

Pyridine (0.034 mL) and acetic anhydride (0.034 mL) were sequentially added to a methylene chloride (0.54 mL) solution of 5-tert-butylsalicylic acid (0.054 g), followed by stirring at room temperature for 2 hours. The solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure, and 1 mol/L hydrochloric acid and ethyl acetate were added to the residue. The organic layer was separated, washed with a saturated aqueous solution of sodium chloride, and dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, and the solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure. The obtained residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography [eluent: 100-90% chloroform/methanol] to obtain 0.049 g of 2-acetoxy-5-tert-butylbenzoic acid as a white solid.
