Procedure

To a solution of methyl 4-hydroxybenzoate (7.61 g) in acetone (80 ml) were added geranyl bromide (10.9 g) and potassium carbonate (13.8 g). The mixture was refluxed with heating for 6 hours. The reaction solution, after water (150 ml) were added thereto, was extracted with chloroform. The extract was dried over sodium sulfite anhydride and then concentrated under a vacuum. The residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (n-hexane:ethyl acetate=9:1), thereby yielding 13.00 g (90%) of methyl 4-geranyloxybenzoate.
