Participants

Reaction Steps

To 50 ml of DMF were added 5.5 g of 4-hydroxy-3-fluorobenzoic acid, 9.4 g of propargyl bromide and 11 g of potassium carbonate and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 8 hours. Then, ethyl acetate was added to the reaction mixture and then, the mixture was filtered through Celite. Water and dilute hydrochloric acid were added to the filtrate in order and it was extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was dried over magnesium sulfate and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was subjected to silica gel column chromatography to obtain 10.8 g of 2-propynyl 4-(2-propynyloxy)-3-fluorobenzoate represented by the formula:
