Reaction Steps

Pentyl 3-amino-4-methoxy-2-methylthiomethylbenzoate (830 mg, 2.79 mmol) and DMF (4.0 ml) were mixed, and potassium t-butoxide (470 mg, 4.19 mmol) and bromopentane (0.62 ml, 5.0 mmol) were successively added to this solution. The mixture was stirred at 100° C. for 1 hour and filtered. The filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure. The obtained residue was purified by column chromatography (hexane/ethyl acetate=15/1) to give pentyl 4methoxy-2-methylthiomethyl-3-pentylaminobenzoate (178 mg, 17%) as a pale-yellow oil.
