Procedure

Ethyl 2-hydroxy-3,3,3-trifluoro-2-trifluoromethylpropionate (12.0 g.) is added dropwise at ambient temperature to a stirred mixture of sodium hydride (2.4 g. of a 60% dispersion in oil) and dimethylformamide (100 ml.). The mixture is stirred for 4 hours, 4-chlorobenzyl chloride (8.4 g.) is added, and the stirring is continued for 6 days. The mixture is filtered, and the filtrate is evaporated in vacuo. The residue is fractionally distilled at 0.1 mm. pressure, collecting the fraction, (9.9 g.) b.p. 78°-80° C., m.p. 32°-33° C, which is crystallized from pentane to give ethyl 2-(4-chlorobenzyloxy)-3,3,3-trifluoro-2-trifluoromethylpropionate, m.p. 33° C.
