Procedure

4-Bromophenol (25.00 g, 145 mmol), para-methoxybenzyl chloride (24.89 g, 159 mmol), potassium iodide (2.17 g, 14.45 mmol), and potassium carbonate (39.9 g, 289 mmol) in acetone (600 mL) was heated to reflux for 18 h. The crude reaction mixture was then cooled to room temperature and filtered through a sintered glass funnel. The filtrate was concentrated in vacuo, and the white solid was recrystallized from ethanol yielding the product as a white solid (33.44 g, 79%). 1H NMR (300 MHz, CDCl3) δ 3.80 (s, 3H), 4.95 (s, 2H), 6.85 (d, 2H), 6.92 (d, 2H), 7.32-7.40 (m, 4H).
