Reaction Steps

A suspension of 22.6 g of 2-hydroxyphenylacetic acid, 0.5 g of paratoluenesulphonic acid in 15.5 cm3 of benzyl alcohol is heated at reflux for three hours. 2 g of 3S active carbon are added, the suspension is filtered over Supercel, and the filtrate is evaporated to dryness under reduced pressure (2.7 kPa). 30 g of benzyl [(2-hydroxy)phenyl]acetate are obtained in the form of crystals. M.p.K =104° C.
