The general procedure for the synthesis of 3-methoxy-2-methylaniline from 2-methyl-3-nitroanisole is as follows (reference Example 42): 1. 9.98 g of a suspension of 5% palladium-carbon (wet) in 100 mL of ethanol was added to a solution of 30.7 g (184 mmol) of 2-methyl-3-nitroanisole in 300 mL of ethanol. 2. The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature and under hydrogen atmosphere for 3 hours. 3. Upon completion of the reaction, the reaction solution was filtered through diatomaceous earth. 4. The filtrate was concentrated under vacuum to give 25.5 g of 3-methoxy-2-methylaniline as a light purple oil (Yield: quantitative). Rf value: 0.38 (hexane: ethyl acetate = 2:1, v/v). Mass spectrum (EI, m/z): 137 (M+). 1H-NMR spectrum (CDCl3, δ ppm): 2.04-2.05 (m, 3H), 3.60 (brs, 2H), 3.80 (s, 3H), 6.33-6.37 (m, 2H), 6.94-7.01 (m, 1H).

Yield: 89%
Reaction Conditions:
Stage #1:3-amino-6-iodo-2-methyl-2-cyclohexen-1-one with potassium tert-butylate in tetrahydrofuran at -15 - 5; for 1 h;
Stage #2:dimethyl sulfate in tetrahydrofuran at 5; for 2 h;
Steps:
2.24 g (20 mmol, 2 eq) of potassium tert-butoxide is dissolved in 60 ml of anhydrous THF and the resulting solution is cooled to -15 0C with stirring. A solution of 2.51 g (10 mmol, 1 eq) of 3-amino-6-iodo-2-methyl-2-cyclohexen-l-one in 25 ml anhydrous THF is added to the potassium tert-butoxide solution and the temperature is kept below
