Reaction Steps

A solution of 2-[4-(4-chlorophenyl)benzyloxy]-3,3,3-trifluoro-2-trifluoromethylpropionic acid (1.2 g.) in ether (20 ml.) is treated at 0° C. with an excess of an ethereal solution of diazomethane. The solution is evaporated, and the residue is recrystallised from light petroleum (b.p. 40°-60° C.) to give methyl 2-[4-(4-chlorophenyl)benzyloxy]-3,3,3-trifluoro-2-trifluoromethylpropionate (1.1 g.), m.p. 61.5°-62.5° C.
