Reaction Steps

In a similar manner, a mixture of 414.5 parts 2-phenoxyethanol, 388 parts methyl acrylate, 141.6 parts heptane, 4.1 parts dimethyltin dichloride, 1.1 parts sodium methoxide (molar ratio 1.09:1), 1.4 parts 4-methoxyphenol and 0.5 parts hydroquinone yielded 524.8 parts (91 percent yield, based on 2-phenoxyethanol) of 2-phenoxyethyl acrylate with a purity of 98.3 percent, containing no detectable tin.
