Procedure

The reaction vessel was charged with toluene (790 ml), 48% aqueous sodium hydroxide (790 ml), tetrabutylammonium bromide (2.12 g, 6.6 mmol) and Z-4-(4-hydroxy-1,2-diphenyl-but-1-enyl)-phenol (50 g, 0.16 mol) prepared by the method described by U.S. Pat. No. 4,996,225. The mixture was refluxed for 30 minutes. Benzyl-(2-bromoethyl)ether (Grobelny D. et al., Tetrahedron Letters 28, 2639-42, 1979) (41.7 g, 0.19 mol) was added to the reaction mixture and the refluxing was continued for 2 hours. Then the mixture was cooled to room temperature, layers were separated and aqueous phase was washed with toluene. Toluene phases were combined, washed with water, dried and evaporated to dryness. The residue was used in the next stage without further purification.
