Answer
![4-[2-Hydroxy-3-(isopropylamino)propoxy]benzoic acid](https://static.chemtradehub.com/structs/725/72570-70-8-4594.webp "4-[2-Hydroxy-3-(isopropylamino)propoxy]benzoic acid")
4-[2-Hydroxy-3-(isopropylamino)propoxy]benzoic acid is synthesized by first preparing the corresponding 3-(isopropylamino)propyl chloride from isopropylamine and chloropropanol. This halide is then reacted with 2-hydroxybenzoic acid in the presence of a base like triethylamine to form the desired acid. The reaction is carried out under mild conditions to ensure high yield and selectivity.
