A mixture of 2′-hydroxyacetophenone (68.1 g, 0.500 mol), benzylbromide (94.1 g, 0.550 mol) and K2CO3 (103 g, 0.750 mol) in acetone (1.0 L) was heated at reflux, and the stirring was continued overnight. After cooled to room temperature, the mixture was concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was diluted with water, and extracted with ethyl acetate. The separated organic phase was washed with brine, dried over MgSO4, filtered and concentrated under reduced pressure. The crude product was purified by distillation under reduced pressure to give 1-[2-(benzyloxy)phenyl]ethanone as a colorless oil. (100 g, yield; 88%)
