Procedure

Into a solution of 152.1 g (1 mol) of 1-(3'-methoxyphenyl)-ethan-1-ol in 750 ml petroleum ether, one introduces hydrogen chloride during ice cooling until water separation is completed. The organic phase is then washed with ice-cold water, dried and the petroleum ether is removed in vacuo. The thermo-labile residue is used without any further purification.
