Reaction Steps

By the method of Example 1, Step I, 0.47 g (0.002 mole) of 2-(4-hydroxy-2-fluorophenyl)-4-methyl-1,2,4-triazine-3,5-dione and 0.73 g (0.003 mole) of methyl 2-(2-chloromethyl-5-methylphenoxy)propionate were reacted in the presence of 0.41 g (0.003 mole) of anhydrous potassium carbonate in 30 mL of N,N-dimethylformamide, yielding 0.70 g of methyl 2-[2-[4-(4-methyl-1,2,4-triazine-3,5-dion-2-yl)-3-fluorophenoxymethyl]-5-methylphenoxy]propionate as a syrup. The IR and NMR spectra were consistent with the proposed structure. NMR: 1.60 (d, 3H, JHH =8.0 Hz); 2.30 (s, 3H); 3.40 (s, 3H); 3.78 (s, 3H); 4.84 (q, 1H, JHH =8.0 Hz); 5.18 (dd, 2H, JHH =10 Hz); 6.58 (s, 1H); 6.8-7.3 (m, 5H); 7.54 (s, 1H).
