Procedure
4.5 g (0.02 mol) of benzyl p-hydroxybenzoate were suspended in about 60 ml of acetone together with 9.7 g (0.03 mol) of cesium carbonate and treated with 2.3 ml (0.025 mol) of ethyl bromoacetate. The mixture was then refluxed until reaction was complete. For working-up, the reaction solution was filtered through a clarifying layer and the filtrate was concentrated to dryness. The residue was taken up in ethyl acetate and the mixture was washed three times each with 10% strength citric acid solution and saturated NaCl solution. The organic phase was dried over sodium sulfate, filtered and concentrated. The residue was recrystallized from diisopropyl ether/heptane. Yield: 5.5 g.
