Sodium hydride (270 mg of 60% NaH, 6.8 mmol) was added under argon and under magnetic stirring to a solution of 4-acetaminophenol (840 mg, 5.6 mmol) in dry THF (20 ml) kept at 0° C. The reaction mixture was stirred at 0° C. for 40 minutes. A solution of crude 4-(nitrooxy)butanoyl chloride in dry THF (10 ml), was then added dropwise to the reaction mixture kept at 0° C. The reaction temperature was allowed to rise to r.t. and the mixture was stirred for 18 hours. The unreacted 4-acetaminophenol was removed by washing the solution with 2M NaOH solution (75 ml). The resulting mixture was extracted with CH2Cl2 (3×75 ml). The combined organic phases were dried over MgSO4 and concentrated under reduced pressure. Purification of the residue by silica gel column chromathography by using petroleum ether/ethyl acetate=30/70 mixture as eluent provided 300 mg (1.1 mmol, 40% yield on converted paracetamol) of pure 4-(acetylamino)phenyl 4-(nitrooxy)butanoate.
