Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 1.0 g (2.45 mmol) of 3-hydroxy-5-[3-[4-(phenylmethoxy)phenoxy]propoxy]benzoic acid methyl ester, 0.6 ml (2.69 mmol) of 1-bromodecane and 0.7 g (4.9 mmol) of potassium carbonate in 20 ml of DMF was stirred at 80° for 24 hours. The usual workup followed by recrystallization from ether-hexane gave 1.25 g (93% yield, mp 68°-70°) of 3-(decyloxy)-5-[3-[4-(phenylmethoxy) phenoxy]propoxy]benzoic acid methyl ester.
