Reaction Steps

According to the procedure of W. K. Anderson et al., J. Chem. Soc., Perkin 1,1 (1976), a mixture of 4-fluorophenol (20.0 g, 0.178 mol) and K2CO3 (27.3 g, 0.196 mol) in acetone (250 mL) was heated at reflux for 1 hour. 2,3-Dichloro-1-propene was added, and the resulting mixture was refluxed for 2 days, cooled, and concentrated. The mixture was diluted with H2O, and extracted with ether (3×150 mL). The ethereal extracts were dried (MgSO4) and concentrated to give a brown oil. Distillation under high vacuum gave 26.4 g (79%) of product as a colorless liquid.
