Reaction Steps

60% Sodium hydride (0.6 g) was suspended in dimethylformamide (10 ml), and piperonyl alcohol (1.5 g) was added under ice-cooilng with stirring. The mixture was stirred at room temperature for 1 hr. The mixture was again ice-cooled, and 1-bromo-5-chloropentane(1.8 g) was added, which was followed by stirring at room temperature for 1.5 hr. Water was added to the reaction mixture and the mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was washed with brine, dried and the solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure to give 0.6 g of 5-((3,4-methylenedioxyphenyl)methoxy)pentyl chloride.
