Procedure

Sodium ethoxide (4.98 g) was added to a solution (240 ml) of 2-(4-hydroxyphenyl)ethyl alcohol (8.68 g) in absolute ethanol and the mixture was stirred at 50° C. for 30 minutes. A solution of 7-octenyl bromide (10 g) in anhydrous tetrahydrofuran was dropwise added thereto and the mixture was stirred at 50° C. for 6 hours. The reaction mixture was concentrated, poured into ice water and extracted with ethyl acetate. The ethyl acetate layer was washed with saturated brine and dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate. The solvent was distilled away and the residue was purified by silica gel chromatography (eluent; ethyl acetate:hexane=1:5) to give the subject compound (10.76 g) as an oily substance.
