Synthesis

To a round-bottomed flask was added 2.5 L of water followed by 80 g of sodium hydroxide and stirred until completely dissolved. Next, 500 g of guaiacol and 1.12 kg of 1-chloro-2,3-epoxypropane were added and the reaction was continuously stirred at 25-35°C for 5-6 hours. After completion of the reaction, the organic layer was separated. To the separated obtained epichlorohydrin layer was added 160 g of sodium hydroxide dissolved in 2.5 L of water and stirring was continued at 25-30 °C for 3-4 hours. The organic layer was again separated and the organic layer was washed with 150 g of sodium hydroxide dissolved in 1.5 L of water. Subsequently, the product layer was distilled at 90°C and 600-700 mmHg under vacuum to recover excess epichlorohydrin, resulting in 650-680 g of oily product. To this crude product was added 3.0 L of isopropanol, cooled to 0 °C and filtered to give 1-(2-methoxyphenoxy)-2,3-epoxypropane (3). Yield: 80%; purity >98%.
