Procedure
Prepared according to the method described in Example 24b) from 4-phenylphenol (0.916 g), ethanol (10 ml), sodium hydroxide (0.215 g), water (5 ml) and (±)-α-(chloromethyl)-3-pyridinepropanol (1.0 g; from Example 24a) above) to give a yellow oil. This was purified by column chromatography over silica eluting with dichloromethane:ethanol (95:5) to give the title compound as a pale yellow gum which solidified on standing (0.307 g).
