 4-Bromo-7-methoxy-benzo[1,3]dioxole-5-carboxylic acid methyl ester (CAS NO.81474-46-6) is used as DDB intermediate.

 Gallic acid with methanol for esterification catalyzed by sulfuric acid to produce 3,4,5 - Trihydroxy methyl, then methylation by Dimethyl sulfate to produce 3-Methoxy-4,5-dihydroxy methyl formate, condensation with Methyl iodide in the presence of alkaline to generate 5-Methoxy-3,4-dimethyl benzoate, and finally obtained 4-Bromo-7-methoxy-benzo[1,3]dioxole-5-carboxylic acid methyl ester (CAS NO.81474-46-6) by the bromination .
