Sodium Methoxide → HCID 19988334, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

80.5 g (0.3 mol) of (S)-3,7-dimethyl-1-iodoctane are added dropwise to a solution of 16.2 g (0.3 mol) of sodium methylate and 24.8 g (0.1 mol) of 1-fluoro-2,5-di(4-hydroxyphenyl)-benzene in 150 ml of methanol at the boiling point. After 5 hours, the mixture is worked up in the customary manner. Recrystallization gives pure 1-fluoro-2,5-di-[4-(3,7-dimethyloctyloxy)-phenyl]-benzene.
