Procedure

1 g (0.024 mol) of a 60% sodium hydride suspension is suspended in 10 ml of dimethylformamide and admixed with a solution of 2.2 g (0.02 mol) of ortho-cresol in 10 ml of dimethylformamide, and the mixture is stirred at 20° C. for 40 minutes. A solution of 11.3 g (0.02 mol) of 40% pure N-(2-bromomethylphenyl)-N-methyl-cyanamide in 10 ml of dimethylformamide is added, and the mixture is stirred at 20° C. for 18 hours. The mixture is stirred into 200 ml of ice/sodium chloride solution and extracted with ether. The combined organic phases are dried over Na2SO4 and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue is chromatographed over silica gel using cyclohexane/ethyl acetate (3:1). 6.3 g of N-[2-(2-methylphenoxymethyl)-phenyl]-N-methyl-cyanamide of a content of 40% (HPLC) are obtained.
