Procedure
To a suspension of NaH (60%, 106 mg, 4.44 mmol) in 2 mL propionic acid ethyl ester was added 1-(4-methylphenyl)ethanone (500 mg, 3.7 mmol) at 0-5° C. The reaction mixture was stirred overnight at rt. Water was added, and the mixture was extracted with EtOAc (3×50 mL). The organic layers were washed with brine, dried over Na2SO4, and concentrated to dryness. The residue was purified by flash column chromatography (PE/EtOAc=10/1) to give the title compound (370 mg, 52%) as a yellow oil. 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3): δ 1.22 (3H, m), 2.45 (5H, m), 6.17 (2H, s), 7.27 (2H, d, J=10 Hz), 7.81 (2H, d, J=11.2 Hz). [M+H] Calc'd for C12H14O2, 191; Found, 191.
