The mixture was quenched with water and the whole was extracted with ethyl acetate (×3). The combined organic layers were washed with brine, dried over magnesium sulfate, and evaporated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by column chromatography (silica gel (250 ml), ethyl acetate/hexane (1/9)) to give 2.15 g of a yellow oil. To the solution of the oil in tetrahydrofuran (35 ml) was added 1N hydrochloric acid (30 ml) at room temperature, and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 1 hour. The mixture was quenched with a mixture of aqueous saturated sodium bicarbonate and brine, and the whole was extracted with ethyl acetate (×3). The combined organic layers were washed with brine, dried over magnesium sulfate, evaporated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by column chromatography (silica gel (150 ml), ethyl acetate/hexane (1:1)) to give ethyl 3-amino-6-methoxy-2-methylbenzoate (884 mg) as an oil.
