Ammonium Chloride → HCID 23155335, compound

A mixture of 4-hydroxybenzaldehyde (1 g), benzyl 3-bromopropyl ether (1.88 g), cesium carbonate (3.2 g) and a catalytic amount of sodium iodide in N,N-dimethylformamide (15 mL) was stirred at room temperature overnight. The reaction mixture was poured into water, and the resulting mixture was extracted with diethyl ether. The extract was washed with water and dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate. The solvent was removed under reduced pressure to give 4-(3-benzyloxypropoxy)-benzaldehyde (2.21 g). To a suspension of methyltriphenyl-phosphoniumbromide (2.92 g) in tetrahydrofuran (30 mL) was added n-butyl lithium (2.71 mol/L n-hexane solution, 3.02 mL) under ice-cooling, and the mixture was stirred for 5 minutes. To the reaction mixture was added a solution of 4-(3-benzyloxy-propoxy)benzaldehyde (2.21 g) in tetrahydrofuran (10 mL), and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 30 minutes. To the reaction mixture was added a saturated aqueous ammonium chloride solution, and the resulting mixture was extracted with diethyl ether. The extract was washed with water and brine, and dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate. The solvent was removed under reduced pressure, and the residue was purified by column chromatography on silica gel (eluent: n-hexane/ethyl acetate=5/1) to give the title compound (1.4 g).
