The procedure of Example 2 was repeated except that 3.96 g (0.05 mol) of dry pyridine was used in place of triethylamine and the reaction was carried out in THF. It was confirmed when the reaction solution was examined by means of thin-layer chromatography that triphenylmethyl methacrylate was quantitatively formed. After the amine salt was removed by filtration, the solvent and excess pyridine were evaporated. The intended product was obtained as a syrup. An attempt to recrystallize it from ether and n-hexane failed, since hydrolysis took place due to water contained in the solvents for recrystallization and triphenylmethyl alcohol was formed.
