Sodium Iodide → HCID 23370065, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 4-(3-bromopropyl)-2,6-di-t-butylphenol (1.20 g), 2-nitrophenol (0.51 g), potassium carbonate (1.01 g) and a catalytic amount of sodium iodide was stirred in dimethylformamide (10 ml) at 60°-70° C. for 1.5 hrs. The reaction solution was poured into water, extracted with ethyl acetate, washed with water and then saturated saline, and dried over anhydrous MgSO4. After distilling off the solvent, the residue was purified by a silica gel column chromatography (hexane:ethyl acetate=10:1) to give 4-[3-(2-nitrophenoxy)propyl]-2,6-di-t-butylphenol (1.05 g, 74%).
