反応手順

A four-neck flask equipped with a thermometer, dropping funnel, condenser tube and stirrer was charged with 305.3 g (3.3 mol) of epichlorohydrin, and while nitrogen purging was performed, the temperature was raised to 70° C. Into the flask, 204.8 g (1.1 mol) of 4-phenoxyphenol dissolved in 1020 g of ethanol was added dropwise taking 4 hours. Further, stirring was performed for 6 hours, to complete the addition reaction, for obtaining 4-phenoxy-O-(2-hydroxy-3-chloropropyl)phenol. In succession, the temperature in the flask was lowered to 25° C., and into the flask, 229 g (2.75 mol) of 48% NaOH aqueous solution was added dropwise taking 2 hours. Further, stirring was performed for 1 hour. After completion of cyclization reaction, ethanol was distilled away, and 410 g of toluene was used for extraction, 5% saline solution being used for washing twice. Toluene and epichlorohydrin were removed from the organic layer under reduced pressure, to obtain 215.6 g of a viscous liquid (yield 89%). The purity of 4-phenoxyphenyl glycidyl ether as the main product was 92% (GCarea %).
