Participants

Reaction Steps

2-(2-Methoxy-4-nitrophenoxy)ethanol (12.0 g) and triethylamine (8.9 g) were dissolved into chloroform (60 ml) and p-toluenesulfonyl chloride (12.3 g) was added into this solution. The solution was stirred for 9 hours at room temperature and allowed to stand for one night.
