Reaction Steps

75 g (630 mmol) of 2-hydroxybenzonitrile, 174 g (1.26 mol) of potassium carbonate and 232.3 g (1.89 mol) of n-propyl bromide in 1 1 of acetone are refluxed overnight. The solid is filtered off, the solvent is removed under reduced pressure and the residue is distilled under reduced pressure. B.p.: 89° C. (0.7 mbar)
