p-Fluoronitrobenzene → 2,4-Difluoro-1-(4-nitrophenoxy)benzene

Participants

Reaction Steps

Prepare the title compound in the manner analogous to the procedure set fourth in example E-227 using 4-fluoro-nitrobenzene and 2,4-difluorophenol (heat 2 hours at 50° C.). Purify the material by silica gel chromatography (Prep.2000) eluting with methylene chloride/hexane 1:1 to provide the title compound as a slowly crystallizing oil. Mass spectrum (m/e): 251.1 (M*). (Bruker 300) 1H NMR (CDCl3) δ 8.17-8.22 (2H, d), 7.14-7.21 (1H, m), 6.90-703 (4H, m).
