Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of 3-acetamidophenol (4.8 g, 32 mmol) in THF (200 mL) was cooled to 0° C. To the solution was added NaH (60% in oil, 1.3 g, 32 mol) and the mixture was warmed to rt and allowed to stir for 30 minutes. The product from Step 1 (˜8.5 g, ˜21 mmol) was added and the mixture was stirred at rt overnight then DMF (10 mL) was added and the solution was heated to 60° C. overnight. The reaction mixture was concentrated in-vacuo, then taken up in EtOAc and H2O and extracted with EtOAc. The organic layers were combined, dried over MgSO4, filtered, and concentrated. The crude oil was purified chromatography to give the title compound (4.3 g, 39%). MS (ES+) m/e 521 [M+H]+.
