Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 3-phenoxybenzyl chloride (10.0 g, 45.7 mmol) in 200 ml acetone was added sodium iodide (7.6 g, 507 mmol). The mixture was stirred at temperature overnight. The mixture was diluted with 300 ml hexane and the organic layer was washed twice with 5% sodium bicarbonate, once with brine and then dried over MgSO4. Evaporation of the filtrate gave a light yellow oil. The product was used in next step without purification. 1H NMR (CDCl3) 4.4 (s,2H), 6.8–7.4 (m, 9H).
