Procedure
2-Fluorophenylacetaldehyde is converted into ethyl 4-(2-fluorophenyl)-2-isopropyl-3-butenoate and hydrolyzed to the acid using the procedure of Example 9. The acid, 4-(2-fluorophenyl)-2-isopropyl-3-butenoic acid, is reacted, via the acid chloride, with m-phenoxybenzyl alcohol to yield m-phenoxybenzyl 4-(2-fluorophenyl)-2-isopropyl-3-butenoate, MS m/e 404.3 (M+). 2-Fluorophenylacetaldehyde is prepared from o-fluoro-β-methoxystyrene via the dimethylacetal using the procedure of Winterfeldt, Berichte 96(12), 3349 (1963).
