Participants

Reaction Steps

9-(N-Methylcarbamoyloxy)xanthene (27.0 g., 0.016 moles) was stirred with 150 ml. of allyl alcohol for 1.5 hours at room temperature, and the mixture was then filtered. The filtrate was evaporated in vacuo, and the residue was dissolved in 200 ml. of ice-cold ether and washed twice each with 100 ml. portions of ice-cold 10% aqueous acetic acid, water and 5% aqueous sodium bicarbonate solution. After drying over potassium carbonate, the solvent was removed in vacuo, and the resulting oil was distilled to give allyl 9-xanthenyl ether, b.p. 100°-105°C. at 0.005 mm.
