Benzyl chloride (12.65 g., 0.1 mole) is added and the mixture stirred at 75°-80° C. for 5 hours. The mixture then is poured onto ice and adjusted to ca. pH 6 with acetic acid. The product is extracted with ether, and the ethereal solution washed with 2% sodium carbonate solution (50 ml.) and then with saturated sodium chloride solution. After drying over magnesium sulphate and then calcium sulfate, the ethereal solution is evaporated to give 2-methoxy-2-methyl-4-benzyloxy-1,3-benzodioxole which can be crystallized from di-isopropyl ether.
