Reaction Steps

In 16.5 ml of dimethylformamide, 5.00 g (0.027 mol) of 2-methyl-5-nitrobenzyl chloride and 21.3 g (0.135 mol) of 2,2,3,3,3-pentafluoropropanol were dissolved. The solution was then added with 2.29 g (0.041 mol) of KOH pellets and stirred overnight. Dichloromethane was added and the precipitated salts were filtered out. The filtrate was acidified with dilute hydrochloric acid and then the solvents were distilled off.
