Allyl phenyl carbonate

Conditions: temp:0.00; pressure:0.00; stir:; See reaction.notes.procedure_details.

Procedure: Allyl phenyl carbonate was prepared in 97% yield by reacting 17.6 grams (0.3 mole) of allyl alcohol with 48.4 grams (0.3 mole) of phenyl chloroformate in the presence of 26.4 grams (0.33 mole) of pyridine and 300 ml of methylene chloride. The allyl phenyl carbonate soluation was washed with 5% HCl, water, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, filtered and the methylene chloride evaporated on a rotating evaporator under reduced pressure. The residual allyl phenyl carbonate (52.7 grams--0.29 mole) was dissolved in 200 ml of methanol and treated with 16.0 grams (0.32 mole) of 64% aqueous hydrazine at room temperature. After two hours, gase chromatography indicated that the carbonate had been completely converted to allyl carbazate and phenol. The reaction mixture was stripped of volatiles on the rotating evaporator. The residue was taken up in 200 ml of methylene chloride and washed with 50 grams of 25% sodium hydroxide to remove the phenol. The methylene chloride layer was washed with saturated salt solution, dried over sodium sulfate, filtered and the methylene chloride stripped off on the rotating evaporator. The residue weighed 9.2 grams and assayed 98.0% by gas chromatography. An additional 3.9 grams was recovered by reextracting the aqueous wash.
