Reaction Steps

4-allyloxy-3-methoxypropenylbenzene was prepared by refluxing a stirred mixture of isoeugenol (164 g),allybromide (133 g) and potassium carbonate (278 g) in dry acetone (700 mls) for 18 hours. Removal of the solids and solvent gave a crude product 208 g which was vacuum distilled to yield 130 g of pure 4-allyloxy-3-methoxy-prop-1-enylbenzene (b.p.. 104-118° C. at 0.1 imbar).
