Procedure

Alkylation of 4-methoxyphenol with 3-(trifluoromethyl)benzyl chloride according to the procedure described in J. Chem. Soc. 2431 (1958) gave 4-methoxy-2-(3′-(trifluoromethyl)benzyl)phenol. This material was converted to compound 67, mp 226.5-228° C., and compound 68, mp 188-190° C., byu the procedure similar to that in Example 18 method B.
