Potassium Carbonate → HCID 54769115, compound

To a solution of 3-hydroxy-4-methoxy-benzaldehyde (10.0 g, 66.0 mmol, 1.0 equiv; commercially available) in anhydrous DMF (40 mL) was added K2CO3 (13.6 g, 99.0 mmol, 1.5 equiv) and 1-bromo-2-fluoro-ethane (9.2 mg, 72.0 mmol, 1.1 equiv) and the mixture stirred at rt for 48 h. The K2CO3 was removed by filtration and the organic phase concentrated under reduced pressure. To the residue was added a sat. solution of NaCl (100 mL) and the solution extracted with ethyl acetate (3×100 mL). The combined organic phases were dried over MgSO4 and the product crystallized from a mixture of isopropanol/diethylether to yield 12.69 g (97%) of the title compound. 1H NMR (300 MHz, DMSO): δ3.89 (s, 3H), 4.24-4.27 (m, 1H), 4.34-4.37 (m, 1H), 4.67-4.70 (m, 1H), 4.83-4.86 (m, 1H), 7.20 (d, J=8.4 Hz, 1H), 7.43 (d, J=1.9 Hz, 1H), 7.59 (dd, J=8.4 Hz, J=1.9 Hz, 1H), 9.84 (s, 1H). MS (ISP): 198.6 [M+H]+.
