Hydrochloric Acid → 2-(1,3-Dioxolan-2-yl)ethyl 2-(4,6-dimethoxypyrimidin-2-yl)oxybenzoate

Participants

Reaction Steps

10 Milliliters of N,N-dimethylformamide in which 0.22 g of 60% sodium hydride in oil has been suspended was mixed with 5 ml of N,N-dimethylformamide solution of 1.38 g of 2-(4,6-dimethoxypyrimidin-2-yl)oxy benzoic acid. After stirring the mixture at room temperature for 30 minutes, 10 ml of N,N-dimethylformamide solution of 1.81 g of 2-(2-bromoethyl)-1,3-dioxolane was added thereto. The resulting solution was stirred at 100° to 110° C. for 2 hours. The reaction solution was allowed to cool, poured into diluted hydrochloric acid, and extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic layer separated from the aqueous layer was washed with saturated sodium chloride solution and dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate. The solvent was removed under reduced pressure, and the residue obtained was subjected to silica gel column chromatography (mfd. by Merck & Co., Inc., solvent: chloroform) to obtain 1.20 g of 2-(1,3-dioxolan-2-yl)ethyl 2-(4,6-dimethoxypyrimidin-2-yl)oxybenzoate [present compound (V-2)].
