Procedure

A mixture of 300.0 g (1.7 mol) of 3-bromophenol, 392.1 g (2.6 mol) of tert-butylchlorodimethylsilane and 295.1 g (4.3 mol) of imidazole in 1 L of N,N-dimethylformamide was stirred at room temperature under nitrogen for 18 hours. The reaction mixture was poured into cold water and extracted with diethyl ether. The ether extracts were washed with water and brine, dried over sodium sulfate, and the solvent was evaporated under vacuum to give 650 g of crude 3-bromophenyl tert-butyldimethylsilyl ether as an orange oil. NMR (CDCl3, 200 MHz) δ: 0.2 (s, 6H); 0.95 (s, 9H); 6.8 (m, 1H); 7.0-7.1 (m, 3H).
