30 g of sodium were added to a solution of 88.5 g of imidazole in 600 ml of methanol; the solvent was then evaporated off. The residue was dissolved in 300 ml of dimethylformamide and heated to 115°-120° C. To the solution so obtained was added, dropwise and under stirring, a solution of 225 g of 1-(2',4'-dichlorophenyl)-2-chloro-ethanol in 400 ml of dimethylformamide. The mixture was heated to 115°-120° C. and maintained at that temperature for 20 minutes and, after subsequent cooling to 40° C., 2500 ml of iced water were added under vigorous stirring. The product precipitated under stirring over a period of about two hours, the upper liquid was then decanted off, a further 2500 ml of water were added and, after standing, the whole was filtered. The precipitate thus obtained was dried and crystallized from toluene. 170 g of the desired product, melting at 134°-135° C., was obtained.
