Reaction Steps

10 g of potassium carbonate was added to 30 ml of a methyl ketone solution containing 15.9 g of p-chlorophenol, and the solution was then heated with stirring at 60° C. for 1 hour. Afterward, 30 ml of a methyl ethyl ketone solution containing 50 g of 1,3-dibromopropane was added dropwise; After the addition, the solution was heated under reflux for 3 hours. The reaction solution was then cooled and a precipitate was removed therefrom, and the solution was evaporated to dryness under reduced pressure to obtain 23.2 g of 4-chlorophenoxypropyl bromide.
