Reaction Steps

In analogy to the procedure described in Example 1b), the alkylation of 4-benzyloxy-phenol [Example 2a)] with methyl (RS)-2-bromopropionate in acetone using cesium carbonate as the base yielded the (RS)-2-(4-Benzyloxy-phenoxy)-propionic acid methyl ester as light yellow oil; MS: m/e=304 (M+NH4)+.
