HCID 214960082-(2,4-Dichlorophenoxy)-1-(4-methylphenyl)ethan-1-one

Procedure

Following the procedure given in Example 13a 2,4-dichlorophenol was interacted with an equimolar quantity of 4-methylphenacyl chloride in the presence of potassium carbonate to give w-(2,4-dichlorophenoxy)-p-methylacetophenone. Recrystallized from 2-ethoxyethanol, this product melted at 96.5°-98.5° C.
