In 5 ml of pyridine containing 1.0 g of 1-naphthylmethanol, 1.27 g of 4-nitrophenyl chloroformate was added under ice cooling and the resultant mixture was stirred for 3 hr. Purified water and ethyl acetate, each 20 ml, were added to the reaction mixture and the ethyl acetate layer was separated and washed with purified water. The ethyl acetate layer was dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, evaporated under reduced pressure and crystallized by the addition of ethanol to give 1.08 g of the title compound.
