Procedure

3-nitro-5-(trifluoromethyl)phenol (770 mg, 3.72 mmol) and 1-bromo-2-methoxyethane (1.75 mL, 19 mmol) were reacted using the procedure described in Example 40A Step 3 to give 1-(2-methoxyethoxy)-3-nitro-5-(trifluoromethyl)benzene (456 mg, 1.72 mmol, 46%). 1H NMR (300 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ 8.05 (s, 1H), 8.02 (s, 1H), 7.80 (s, 1H), 4.36 (dd, 2H), 3.71 (dd, 2H), 3.31 (s, 3H); LC-MS (ESI) m/z 266 (M+H)+.
