Reaction Steps

Thus, benzylchloride or benzylbromide can be reacted at elevated temperature with the alkololate from 3-hydroxytetrahydrofurane and sodium hydride, suspended in dioxane to yield the (3-tetrahydrofuryl)-benzylether which is an active herbicide against grassy weeds (German Offenlegungsschrift No. 2724675).
