Procedure
1,1,1-Trifluoro-2-(4-ethoxyphenyl)-3-(3-phenoxy-4-fluorobenzyloxy)propan-2-ol (0.2 g) in dry N,N-dimethylformamide (2 cm3) was added to a suspension of sodium hydride (0.1 g of a 50% dispersion in oil--washed free of oil with n -hexane) in N,N-dimethylformamide (2 cm3) at the ambient temperature (ca. 22° C.) under an atmosphere of nitrogen. After stirring for 20 minutes a solution of methyl iodide (0.1 g) in N,N-dimethylformamide (3 cm3) was added in one portion. After 20 minutes no starting material could be detected by gas liquid chromatographic analysis. The mixture was carefully diluted with water (30 cm3) then solid sodium chloride was added and the mixture shaken with diethyl ether. The layers were separated and the aqueous layer extracted with a further three portions of diethyl ether. The combined organic extracts were dried over anhydrous magnesium sulphate and the solvent removed by evaporation under reduced pressure. The resulting pale yellow oil was purified by chromatography on silica gel, eluting with n-hexane containing 10% by volume ethyl acetate to give 1,1,1-trifluoro-2-methoxy-2-(4-ethoxyphenyl)-3-(3-phenoxy-4-fluorobenzyloxy)propane as a colourless oil (0.2 g).
