Procedure
A mixture of 2-(2,4-dihydroxyphenyl)-2H-benzotriazole (7.0 grams, 0.031 mole), 3-n-octyloxy-1,2-epoxypropane (10.7 grams, 0.046 moles), N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone (40 ml) and ethyltriphenylphosphonium bromide (0.2 gram) was heated for four hours at 135°-150° C. The solvent and excess epoxide were then removed by distillation. The resulting residue was dissolved in methylene chloride, washed with hydrochloric acid, water and sodium chloride solution before passing through a silica gel column. The product was obtained as a yellow oil which crystallized on standing. Recrystallization from heptane gave the above named product with a melting point of 51°-55° C.
