Procedure

4-Methoxy-3-nitrophenol (0.8 g, 4.7 mmol) was dissolved in acetonitrile (13 ml). Potassium carbonate (1.63 g, 11.8 mmol) was added, followed by 1-bromo-2-chloroethane (3.93 ml, 47.2 mmol). The reaction was heated and stirred at reflux for 20 h. The reaction was cooled to room temperature, the solid was then filtered off and the solvent evaporated under reduced pressure to give the title compound.
