Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of methyl 3-(4-hydroxyphenyl)propanoate (2.50 g) and 3-phenylpropan-1-ol (2.8 mL) in tetrahydrofuran (70 mL), triphenylphosphine (5.46 g) was added at room temperature. Next, diethyl azodicarboxylate (9.4 mL, 40% toluene solution) was added dropwise thereto, followed by stirring at room temperature for 2 hours. Then, the reaction mixture was concentrated and the obtained residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (hexane:ethyl acetate=30:1 to 5:1) to give the title compound (3.02 g) having the following physical properties.
