Off-white to beige crystalline powder | [Uses]
Methyl 3-hydroxy-4-methoxybenzoate may be used as starting reagent in the novel synthesis of gefitinib. Synthesis involves the alkylation of starting material, followed by nitration, reduction, cyclization, chlorination and two successive amination reactions. It may be used as starting reagent in the synthesis of methyl 5-(benzo[d][1,3]dioxol-5-yl)-4-methoxy-2-nitrobenzoate. | [Synthesis]
To a dry 100 mL three-necked flask, 10 g of 3-hydroxy-4-methoxybenzoic acid, 110 mL of methanol, and 360 μL of concentrated sulfuric acid were sequentially added, and the mixture was heated to 65 °C and reacted under magnetic stirring overnight. The reaction process was monitored by thin layer chromatography (unfolding agent: ethyl acetate/dichloromethane=1:1). Upon completion of the reaction, the reaction mixture was transferred to a round bottom flask and methanol was removed by distillation under reduced pressure. The residue was extracted with 25 mL of ethyl acetate and neutralized with 15 mL of saturated sodium bicarbonate solution. After evaporation of ethyl acetate, the solid product methyl 3-hydroxy-4-methoxybenzoate was obtained as 9.06 g in 83.6% yield. | [References]
