A new and facile method for the general preparation of 3‐alkoxy‐2,3‐dihydro‐1 H ‐isoindol‐1‐ones has been developed. Thus, the reaction of 2‐(azidomethyl)benzoates with NaH affords, after workup with H 2 O, 3‐alkoxy‐2,3‐dihydro‐1 H ‐isoindol‐1‐ones 2 . 2‐Substituted 3‐alkoxy‐2,3‐dihydro‐1 H ‐isoindol‐1‐ones 4 can be obtained by adding alkyl halides prior to workup with H 2 O.
