Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 2-sec butylphenol (1.5 g, 0.01 mole) and ethyl N-methylcarbamate (1.03 g, 0.01 mole) was added phosphorus tribromide (2.7 g, 0.01 mole) and the contents were heated at 140° C. for 15 hours. The reaction mixture was worked up as described earlier to give 2-sec butylphenyl N-methylcarbamate, identified by spectral data.
