The mixture was stirred at room temperature for an additional 45 minutes, and then 23.7 ml (31.0 g; 0.25 mole) of 2-bromopropane was added in one portion. After stirring for an additional 30 hours, the mixture was added to 2.0 kg of ice/water and extracted with dichloromethane (4×300 ml). The combined organic layers were back-washed with water (2×150 ml), dried (anhydrous magnesium sulfate), and evaporated (vacuum) to an oil residue. Flash chromatographic purification (silica gel, dichloromethane elution) of the residue yielded 24.0 g (65% yield) of the analytically pure ether product as an oil, suitable for conversion to the naphthol described in Example 4.
