Procedure
To a solution of eugenol (500 mg, 3.03 mmol) in dichloromethane (5 mL) were added K2CO3 (1.0 g, 7.57 mmol) followed by bromo acetyl bromide (931 mg, 4.54 mmol) at 0° C. The mixture was allowed to stir at room temperature (25° C.) over a period of 1 hr. The resulting mixture was diluted with ethyl acetate (200 mL), washed with water (2×200 mL) and dried over sodium sulphate. The crude product obtained up on evaporation of the solvent was further purified by silica gel column chromatography to obtain bromo-acetic acid 4-allyl-2-methoxy-phenylester as viscous oil (550 mg, 63%).
