Sodium hydride → HCID 13649706, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

0.44 g (10 mmol) Sodium hydride dispersion (55%) was freed from oil by washing three times with dry toluene. It was suspended in 10 ml dry dimethoxyethane and then, with stirring, 1.77 g (8.0 mmol) 2-(4-chlorophenyl)-2-difluoromethylpropanol and 2.24 g (8.0 mmol) 4-fluoro-3-phenoxybenzyl bromide added. After stirring for five hours at room temperature a thin layer chromatogram (Merck DC silica gel 60F254 plate, using hexane/ethyl acetate 1:1 as eluant, Rf : 0.57) showed that no starting material was present.
