反応手順

4-Chlorobutyl acetate (276.6 g; 1.8 mol) is added to a solution of ethyl 4-hydroxybenzoate (249 g; 1.5 mol), potassium iodide (3 g) and potassium carbonate (248 g; 1.8 mol) in dimethylformamide (2 l), and the mixture is stirred at 90° C. for 11 hours. The reaction mixture is transferred into 5 l of ice water, and the resultant precipitate is filtered off with suction and washed with 4 to 5 l of ice water. The crude product is dissolved in 3 l of ethanol, potassium hydroxide (400 g) is added, and the mixture is refluxed for 3 hours. The reaction mixture is transferred into 6 l of ice water, and acidified by means of concentrated hydrochloric acid, and the precipitate is filtered off, washed with water until neutral and then dried.
