Reaction Steps

Seven grams of 3-(4-chlorophenoxy)2-methyl-1-propene and 0.35 g of potassium t-butoxide are heated at 150° under nitrogen for 3 days. The mixture is then worked up with water and extracted with ether. The organic phase is washed with dilute acid, water and brine, dried over magnesium sulfate and solvent is removed to yield 3-(4-chlorophenoxy)-2-methyl-2-propene.
