Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

To a reaction flask were added 2-chloro-4-nitrophenol (5.205 g, 30 mmol), 2-chlorobenzyl chloride (5.313 g, 33 mmol), potassium carbonate (4.554 g, 33 mmol) and DMF (40 ml). The reaction mixture was heated to the temperature of 100° C. After the reaction finished, the reaction solution was poured into water (400 ml). The mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate (300 ml). The ethyl acetate layer was washed with saturated saline solution (200 ml) once and dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate. The organic layer was filtered and the solvent was rotary-evaporated to dryness. The resultant substance was recrystallized with ethyl acetate to give 1-(2-chlorobenzyloxy)-2-chloro-4-nitrobenzene (8.567 g).
