Reaction Steps

To a solution of 24.2 g of sodium p-nitrophenoxide in 60 ml of DMF was added 23.5 g of 4-methoxybenzyl chloride. The precipitate was collected after 24 hours, washed with water, and recrystallized from chloroformcyclohexane, providing 1-methoxy-4-[(4-nitrophenoxy)methyl]benzene, mp 122°-124° C.
