Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

1.37 g (3.76 mmol) of 1-(3-bromopropyl)-4-(4-phenoxybutoxy)benzene, 0.79 g (3.76 mmol) of ethyl 3-formyl-4-hydroxybenzoate [CAS No. 82304-99-2] and 0.78 g (5.64 mmol) of potassium carbonate are dissolved in 20 ml of DMF, and the mixture is stirred at 40° C. for 16 hours. It is then concentrated, and the residue is taken up in 200 ml of water and extracted with dichloromethane (three times 100 ml). The combined organic phases are dried (sodium sulphate) and concentrated, and the crude product is purified by chromatography on silica gel (mobile phase gradient cyclohexane-->cyclohexane/ethyl acetate 5:1). 1.45 g of product are obtained.
