Procedure
A mixture of 28 g of 4-nitrophenol, 36 g of ethyl 2-bromopropionate, 27.6 g of potassium carbonate and 500 ml of butanone was stirred and refluxed for 17 hours. The resulting mixture was diluted with 500 ml of water and extracted with ether. The extract was concentrated in a rotary evaporator and the residue was recrystallized from ether-hexane to give ethyl 2-(4-nitrophenoxy)propionate (1D), as a yellow solid, m.p.: 55-56° C.
