Procedure
3-Chloro-2-methylpropene (2.1 mL, 0.021 mol) is added to a stirred N,N-dimethylformamide solution (30 mL) of ethyl 4-hydroxybenzoate (3 g, 0.018 mol). Potassium carbonate (3.2 g, 0.023 mol) is introduced and the mixture is heated at 90° C. for one hour. The reaction mixture is cooled to room temperature and filtered to remove inorganic salts. N,N-dimethylformamide is removed under reduced pressure, Demineralized water (20 mL) is added to the residue and the aqueous layer is extracted with ethyl acetate (3×20 mL). Combined organic layers are washed with demineralized water (2×15 mL) followed by brine and dried over sodium sulphate. Removal of ethyl acetate under reduced pressure gives a viscous liquid which is purified by column chromatography (silica gel 230-400 mesh, n-hexane:ethyl acetate, 90:10) to give 4-(2-methylprop-2-enyloxy)benzoic acid ethyl ester.
