Procedure
Combine 4-hydroxybenzophenone (347 g, 1.75 mol) and methanol (3.5 L). Heat to 50° C. and add a solution of sodium ethanolate in ethanol (718 mL, 21% by weight, 1.92 mol) over 20 minutes. Heat to reflux and add 1-bromo-4-chlorobutane (600 g, 3.5 mol) over 30 minutes. After 18 hours, cool the reaction mixture and evaporate in vacuo to obtain a residue. Add ethyl acetate (5 L) to give a solid. Filter and extract the filtrate with aqueous 10% sodium hydroxide solution and aqueous saturated sodium chloride solution. Dry the organic layer over MgSO4, filter, and evaporate in vacuo to give 4-(4-chlorobutoxy)benzophenone.
