Reaktionsschritte

A mixture of 1-naphthol (15.14 g, 0.105 mole), 4-chlorobutyric acid (9.90 mL, 0.100 mole), and boron trifluoride etherate (75 mL) was heated on a steam bath for 4 hours. The mixture was then treated slowly with 100 mL of water, and heating continued for 30 minutes. The mixture was poured into water, stirred, and the solution decanted. The residue was triturated with water, then crystallized from ethanol to provide the title compound (9.50 g, 38%) as a pale green solid, mp 73°-79°.
