Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of N-(2-hydroxy-4-methylphenyl)-4-nitrobenzamide (3.8 g) in N,N-dimethylformamide (25 ml) was added potassium carbonate (3.85 g) and benzyl bromide (2.63 g). The reaction mixture was stirred at ambient temperature for 3 hours. The mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate and washed with water and brine. The organic solution was dried over magnesium sulfate. The solvent was removed by evaporation to give N-(2-benzyloxy-4-methylphenyl)-4-nitrobenzamide (4.8 g).
