Allyl bromide → 3-allyloxy-4-fluoro-benzoic Acid Ethyl Ester

Participants

Reaction Steps

K2CO3 (96.9 mmol) and 3-bromo-1-propen (64.6 mmol) are added to a solution of 4-fluoro-3-hydroxy-benzoic acid ethyl ester (32.3 mmol) in acetone (50 mL). The mixture is heated to reflux for 16 h, filtered and cooled to RT. The solvents are removed in vacuo to give the desired product which is used without further purification. LC-MS: tR=1.01 min; [M+CH3CN+H]+=266.0.
