Participants

Reaction Steps

Into a 1,000 ml two-necked flask equipped with a refluxing condenser, 20.0 g of 2,6-dihydroxynaphthalene (Sigma-Aldrich), 27.0 ml of allyl bromide (Sigma-Aldrich), 103.61 g of K2CO3, and 500 ml of acetone are charged and mixed at room temperature. Then, the temperature was set to 80° C., and the homogeneous mixture thus obtained is refluxed overnight. After finishing the reaction, the reaction mixture is cooled to room temperature and filtered using Celite. Organic solvent is evaporated to obtain a coarse product. A target product is extracted from the coarse product using ethyl acetate, washed three times using water, and dried using MgSO4. MgSO4 is filtered off, and solvents are removed by using an evaporator to obtain an intermediate product (11), 2,6-bis(allyloxy)naphthalene. The reaction scheme of the 1st step is as follows.
