Abstract: Objective To improve the synthetic process of 2-methyl-5-methoxy benzoic acid ethyl ester. Methods The target compounds were prepared from 2-methyl-5-nitro-benzoic acid through esterification, reduction, diazotization hydrolysis and methylation. Results In the procedure of reduction, Pd/H2 system was replaced by Fe/AcOH with a yield of 92.7%. In the produce of methylation, potassium carbonate were used to take place of the NaH as deacid reagent with a yield of 89.1%. The yield of the new synthesis process was promoted from 75% to 89.1%. Conclusions This study provided a synthesis process route of 2-methyl-5-methoxy benzoic acid ethyl ester with simple operation, mild reaction condition, low price, which was suitable for the amplification of the preparation. -
