Procedure

To a strred solution of N-(2-hydroxy-phenyl)-benzamide (0.81 g, 3.80 mmol), and cesium carbonate (1.61 g, 4.94 mmol) in acetonitrile was added epibromohydrin (0.63 ml, 7.60 mmol). After 4 hours the reaction mixture was partitioned between dichloromethane and water. After evaporation of the organic solvent, the residue was crystallized from petroleum ether and diethyl ether yielding the title compound (0.741 g, 73%).
