4-[(4-methylphenyl)methoxy]benzaldehyde

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

Procedure: 18.3 g of p-hydroxybenzaldehyde is dissolved in 200 ml of methyl ethyl ketone, and then 22.8 g of potassium carbonate and 23.2 g of α-chloro-p-xylene are added thereto. The resulting mixture is refluxed for 10 hours in a stream of nitrogen. Insoluble substances produced are removed by filtration, and then the solvent is distilled away. The resulting residue is distilled under reduced pressure to obtain 17.9 g of 4-(4-methylbenzyloxy)benzaldehyde in the form of white crystal. The resulting mixture is refluxed for 10 hours in a stream of nitrogen Insoluble substances produced are removed by filtration the solvent is distilled away The resulting residue is distilled under reduced pressure

Conditions: temp:22.01; pressure:0.00; stir:
