Procedure

A flask was charged with 3-phenoxybenzoylamide (2.07 g, 9.8 mmol)(prepared from the corresponding acid chloride and concentrated ammonia), potassium carbonate (1.3 mL, 4% aqueous solution, 3.8 mmol), and aqueous formaldehyde (1.1 mL, 37% aqueous solution, 13.6 mmol). The resulting suspension was heated to reflux to give a two-phased solution. Addition of more aqueous formaldehyde (3 mL, 37 mmol) gave a homogeneous solution which was heated at reflux for 4 h. The reaction solution was cooled and partitioned between brine and ethyl acetate. The aqueous layer was dram off and extracted with ethyl acetate (2×). The combined organic layers were washed (2×, brine), dried (Na2SO4), and concentrated under vacuum to provide 2.47 gms of a viscous oil which solidified after vacuum drying. Recrystallization from cold ethyl acetate:hexanes provided the title compound as a colorless solid (1.38 g, 58%), mp 112.5-113° C.
