Participants

Reaction Steps

5.2 g (0.026 mol) of 3-phenoxy-benzyl alcohol and 7 g (0.026 mol) of 2,2-dimethyl-3-(3,3,3-trifluoro-2-ethoxy-prop-1-enyl)-cyclopropanecarboxylic acid chloride were dissolved in 100 ml of anhydrous toluene, and 2.5 g of pyridine, dissolved in 20 ml of anhydrous toluene, were added dropwise at 20°-25° C., while stirring. Stirring was then continued at 25°-35° C. for 3 hours. The reaction mixture was poured into 150 ml of water, to which 10 ml of concentrated hydrochloric acid were added, and the organic phase was separated off and washed again with 100 ml of water. The toluene phase was then dried over sodium sulphate and the solvent was distilled off under a water-pump vacuum. Last residues of solvent were removed by brief incipient distillation at a bath temperature of 60° C./1 mm Hg. 9.9 g (87.7% of theory) of 2,2-dimethyl-3-(3,3,3-trifluoro-2-ethoxy-prop-1-enyl)-cyclopropanecarboxylic acid 3-phenoxybenzyl ester were obtained as a yellow oil with the refractive index nD25 : 1.5130.
