ethyl 2-(2,3-dimethoxyphenyl)acetate

Conditions: temp:0.00; pressure:0.00; stir:; See reaction.notes.procedure_details.

Procedure: To a solution of 2,3-dimethoxyphenylacetic acid (2.52 g, 12.8 mmol) in EtOH (abs.; 20 mL) was added H2SO4 (30 μL), and the solution was refluxed for 20 hours. The resultant solution was concentrated, dissolved in ether, and the ether solution was washed with NaHCO3/aq (2×30 mL) and brine, dried (MgSO4) and concentrated to yield the sub-title compound. the solution was refluxed for 20 hours The resultant solution was concentrated dissolved in ether the ether solution was washed with NaHCO3/aq (2×30 mL) and brine dried (MgSO4) concentrated
