Reaktionsschritte

To a solution of 3-chloro-4-hydroxy-benzaldehyde (5.0 g, 32 mmol) and BnBr (6.6 g, 38 mmol) in CH3CN (100 mL) was added K2CO3 (8.8 g, 64 mmol). The mixture was heated at reflux for 2 hours. The resulting mixture was poured into water (100 mL), and extracted with EtOAc (100 mL×3). The combined organic layers were washed with brine, dried over anhydrous Na2SO4 and evaporated under vacuum to give crude product, which was purified by column (petroleum ether/EtOAc 15:1) to give 4-benzyloxy-3-chloro-benzaldehyde (7.5 g, 95%). 1H NMR (CDCl3, 400 MHz) δ 9.85 (s, 1H), 7.93 (d, J=2.0 Hz, 1H), 7.73 (dd, J=2.0, 8.4 Hz, 1H), 7.47-7.34 (m, 5H), 7.08 (d, J=8.8 Hz, 1H), 4.26 (s, 2H).
