Conditions

Temperature
50 °C

Procedure

A mixture of 3-(2-quinolinylmethyloxy)phenol (2.51 g, 0.01 mol), 1.85 g (0.01 mol) of methyl 3-chloromethyl benzoate, and 1.5 g of potassium carbonate in 30 ml of DMF is heated at 50° C. overnight. The reaction mixture is poured into water, extracted with ethyl acetate and the organic solution separated, dried and evaporated to dryness. Recrystallization from ethyl acetate gives methyl 3-(3-(2-quinolinylmethyloxy)phenoxymethyl)benzoate. (M.P. 93°-94° C.)
