Procedure

At room temperature, a solution of 2-bromomethyl-3-(tert-butyl-dimethyl-silanyloxy)-6-nitro-benzoic acid methyl ester (12.6 g, 25.1 mmol) in 60 mL of THF is added 2M solution of methylamine in THF (37.7 mL, 75.3 mmol) at 0° C. and then the reaction mixture is stirred for 6 hours at the room temperature. Methanol and 1M Hydrochloric acid solution are added to the reaction mixture. The mixture is evaporated in vacuo and the precipitate is collected to give 4-hydroxy-2-methyl-7-nitro-2,3-dihydro-isoindol-1-one (2.1 g) as yellow solid in 40% yields for 3 steps.
