A solution of 2,6-dihydroxyacetophenone (15.2g.), phenylglycidyl ether (15.0 g) and benzyltrimethylammonium hydroxide (5 drops of a 40% solution) in 2-ethoxyethanol (75 ml) was heated under reflux for 48 hours. The solvent was removed under reduced pressure and the resulting solid was washed with ether. Recrystallization from aqueous ethanol gave 1-(2-acetyl-3-hydroxyphenoxy(-2-hydroxy-3-phenoxypropane, 19.0 g, as pale lemon needles, m.p. 100.5°-101.5° C.
