Reaktionsschritte

After 300 ml of ethanol was added to 35 g of p-[5-(1-imidazolyl)pentyloxy]phenol and 39 g of potassium carbonate, the mixture was heated at 60° C. with stirring and then cooled to room temperature. A solution of 43 g of ethyl 6-bromo-2,2-dimethylhexanoate in 50 ml of ethanol was added to the reaction mixture, and then the mixture was stirred under reflux overnight. The solvent was removed from the reaction mixture by distillation under reduced pressure and the residue was dissolved in chloroform. The solution was successively washed with a 1N aqueous sodium hydroxide solution, water, a saturated aqueous sodium chloride solution and then dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate. After drying, the solvent was removed by distillation over reduced pressure and the residue was subjected to silica gel column chromatography. The product was eluted out using a chloroform-methanol liquid mixture (30:1) as an eluant. The solvent was removed from the eluate by distillation. The residue was recrystallized from a mixture of ethyl acetate-n-hexane to give the desired product, ethyl 6-[p-[5-(1-imidazolyl)pentyloxy]phenoxy]-2,2-dimethylhexanoate.
