Procedure

To 2.52 g of methyl 5-(p-hydroxyphenoxy)-2,2-dimethylpentanoate and 1.38 g of anhydrous potassium carbonate was added 30 ml of ethanol and the mixture was heated under reflux for 30 minutes while stirring. After cooling, 2.53 g of 1,5-dibromopentane was added thereto and the mixture was reacted overnight with heating under reflux. After the solvent was removed by distillation under reduced pressure, water was added to the resulting residue followed by extracting with chloroform. After the chloroform layer was successively washed with an aqueous saturated hydrogen sodium carbonate solution and then an aqueous saturated sodium chloride solution, the chloroform layer was dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate. The solvent was removed by distillation under reduced pressure and the resulting residue was subjected to silica gel column chromatography. The product was eluted using an n-hexane-ethyl acetate mixture (8:1 in a volume ratio). The solvent was removed by distillation to give the desired product, methyl 5-[p-(5-bromopentyloxy)phenoxy]-2,2-dimethylpentanoate as an oily substance.
