Reaction Steps

To a suspension of NaH (299 mg, 7.48 mmol) in DMF (20 ml) at 0° under argon atmosphere was added methyl 2-amino-5-hydroxybenzoate (1.25 g, 7.48 mmol) and 2-iodoacetamide (1.38 g, 7.48 mmol). The mixture was stirred at 0° for 1 hr and at r.t overnight. At 0° water was given to the reaction mixture. The product was extracted with EtOAc. The organic layers were dried over MgSO4, filtered and concentrated. The crude product was purified by silica gel chromatography using a methylenchloride gradient to obtain the title compound (1.03 g, 64%) as off-white solid.
