Procedure

Sodium (0.055 g; 2.4 mmol) and ethanol (1.5 mL) was added to a melt of 2-chloro-4-methoxyphenol (5.20 g; 32.8 mmol). When all the sodium was dissolved, ethyl acrylate (4.1 g; 41 mmol) was added and the mixture was heated at 105° C. for 7 days. The mixture was then cooled to RT and partitioned between ether and water. The mixture was made acidic with HCl (2M; aq.) and extracted with ether three times. The combined organic layer was washed with NaOH (2M; aq), dried (CaCl2) and evaporated. The crude product (2.7 g) was purified using preparative RPLC (CH3CN:0.1M ammonium acetate (60:40)). Yield 1.90 g (22%).
