Procedure

Butyl lithium in hexane (30 mmol) was added to phenylacetylene (3.29 ml, 30 mmol) in dry THF (20 ml) at -78° C. The mixture was allowed to reach room temperature, cooled to 78° C. and 2-chloromethoxyethyl benzoate (6.4 g 30 mmol) added. The mixture was kept at 0° C. for 24 hours, quenched with water and extracted into ether. The crude product obtained from the organic phase was treated with 8% sodium hydroxide in ethanol (100 ml) and heated under reflux for 0.5 hours. The crude product was poured into water and extracted into ether. The ether extracts were washed with water, dried and the solvent removed to give 5 g of 2-(3-phenyl-2-propynoxy) ethanol.
