Reaction Steps

2-Acetyl-4-phenoxyphenol (4.22 g, 18.5 mmol) and cesium carbonate (15.0 g, 46.0 mmol) are taken in DMF (50 mL) and treated with allyl bromide (2.24 g, 18.5 mmol). The mixture is stirred overnight at room temperature. Ether is added and the mixture is washed with saturated aqueous ammonium chloride solution. The organic phase is dried over magnesium sulfate and evaporated to give 2-acetyl-1-allyloxy-4-phenoxybenzene as a yellow solid.
