Reaction Steps
A stirred mixture of 4-hydroxy-alpha-oxobenzeneacetic acid methyl ester (0.724 g) in dimethylformamide (10 mL) under argon was treated with 55% sodium hydride (0.175 g), stirred for 15 minutes and treated with (6-bromohexyloxy)benzene (1.5 g). The mixture was heated at 60° C. overnight and worked up as in Example 20. The material from dichloromethane extraction was purified by HPLC (dichloromethane-hexane; 5:1) and crystallized from diethyl ether-hexane to provide 0.95 g of alpha-oxo-4-[[(6-phenoxy)hexyl]oxy]benzeneacetic acid methyl ester, mp 50°-52° C.
