Procedure

A solution of methyl 4-(4′-hydroxyphenyl)benzoate (2.02 g), n-butylbromide (3 ml) and sodium carbonate (3.6 g) in N,N-dimethylformamide was stirred for 17 hours at 80° C. The reaction mixture was cooled to room temperature and partitioned between ethyl acetate and water. The aqueous layer was extracted with ethyl acetate. The combined organic layer was washed with water and brine. After dried over magnesium sulfate, the solution was evaporated in vacuo. The residue was triturated with n-hexane to afford methyl 4-(4′-butyloxyphenyl)benzoate (2.45 g).
