Reaction Conditions:

with triethylamine in dichloromethane at 0; for 0.166667 h;

Steps:

4.1. 2,3-Dimethylphenyl acetate (21)

To a solution of 2,3-dimethylphenol (50 g, 0.409 mol) in CH₂Cl₂(120 mL) at 0 °C was added Et₃N (114 mL, 0.819 mol) followed by dropwise addition of Ac₂O (58 mL, 0.6135 mol). After completion of the reaction in 10 min (monitored by TLC), ice-cold water was added, and the aqueous layer was extracted by using CH₂Cl₂. The organic layer was washed with brine solution, dried over Na₂SO₄, concentrated under reduced pressure. The compound was purifiedby flash column chromatography to get compound 21 as yellow color liquid (66.5 g).
