Procedure

A mixture of 34 g (0.2 mole) of 4-phenylphenol, 63 g (0.4 mole) of 1-bromo-3-chloropropane and 82.9 g (0.6 mole) of anhydrous potassium carbonate in 1 liter of acetone was heated at reflux for 17 hr. The mixture was cooled, filtered, and the filtrate concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was triturated with petroleum ether (30°-60° C.) and a solid crystallized. The solid was collected by filtration and was subjected to flash chromatography on 400 g of silica gel on a 10-cm diameter column to remove starting phenol. The column was eluted with a 1:2 mixture of benzene and cyclohexane, and fractions containing title compound were combined and concentrated to give a solid residue. The solid was triturated with petroleum ether (30°-60° C.), collected by filtration, and dried to yield 35.1 g (71%) of title compound as a white solid. An analytical sample was recrystallized from petroleum ether (60°-110° C.), mp 65°-66° C.
