反応手順

To a solution of 5-methylbenzene-1,3-diol.H2O (1.0 g, 7.0 mmol) in DMF (15 ml) was added potassium tert-butoxide (0.86 g, 77 mmol). The mixture was stirred at 60° C. for 1 h. To the mixture was added (bromomethyl)cyclohexane (1.2 g, 7.0 mmol). The reaction mixture was stirred at 60° C. for 18 h, concentrated under vacuum, partitioned between water (40 ml) and ethyl acetate (60 ml). Ethyl acetate portion was dried over Na2SO4. Purification by chromatography (10 to 30% EtOAc-hexanes gradient) gave 3-(cyclohexylmethoxy)-5-methylphenol (133) as a light yellow solid. Yield (0.40 g, 26%): 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3) δ 6.31 (s, 1H), 6.20-6.22 (m, 2H), 4.62 (bs, 1H), 3.69 (d, J=6.4 Hz, 2H), 2.50 (s, 3H), 1.64-1.88 (m, 6H), 1.16-1.34 (m, 3H), 0.98-1.08 (m, 2H).
