Procedure

4-Hydroxybenzaldehyde (24.4 g) and sodium hydride (4.8 g) in dry dimethylformamide (400 ml) were stirred at room temperature for 3 h. N-(3-Bromopropyl)phthalimide (55.0 g) was added and the reaction was stirred for a further 5 h. The mixture was poured onto ice and the resulting white solid was recrystallised from a mixture of dichloromethane and cyclohexane to yield the title compound (42.2 g) m.p. 120°-1°. TLC silica, ethyl acetate, Rf 0.7.
