Sodium Hydroxide → 1-(2,4-Dichlorophenyl)-1-(2,4-dichlorophenoxyethoxy)-2-(1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)-1-ethanol

Participants

Reaction Steps

12.95 g (0.05 mole) of 1-(2,4-dichlorophenyl)-2-(1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)-1-ethanol are dissolved in 100 ml of toluene, and 100 ml of 40% strength sodium hydroxide solution and 1 ml of benzyl-dodecyl-dimethylammonium chloride are added. 13.5 g (0.05 mole) of 2,4-dichlorophenoxyethyl bromide are then added dropwise and the mixture is subsequently stirred at room temperature for 48 hours. The organic phase is separated off, washed with three 100 ml portions of saturated sodium chloride solution, dried over sodium sulphate and concentrated. The residue is taken up in 100 ml of diethyl ether, and crystallizes after the mixture has stood for a short time. 7.8 g (35% of theory) of 1-(2,4-dichlorophenyl)-1-(2,4-dichlorophenoxyethoxy)-2-(1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)-1-ethanol of melting point 88°-90° C. are obtained.
