Procedure

Chloroacetone (0.89 ml, 1.04 g, 11.2 mmol) is added to a mixture of 4-(3-methyl-2-butenoxy)phenol (2.0 g, 11.2 mmol), potassium carbonate (25 g) and potassium iodide (2.6 g) in 125 mol of anhydrous acetone. The mixture is heated under reflux for 4.5 hours and then is allowed to cool to RT to give 4-(3-methyl-2-butenoxy)phenoxyacetone.
