Hello,
I have a starting compound of what appears to be a primary Arylamine, Ar-NH2.
From that I want to make a phenyl ethyl ether, Ar-O-CH2-CH3.
This is what I have attempted:
Start With AR-NH2
React 1: Diazotination: HONO, HCL, 0 degrees Celcuis
Product 1: AR-NN+ (Diazonium ion)
React 2: Sandmeyer Reaction: Cu2O, Cu 2+, H20
Product 2: AR-OH
React 3: NaOH
Product 3: AR-O- ?
React 4: Primary Alkyl Halide Reaction? : CH3CH2I
Product 4: AR-O-CH2-CH3
Would this work?
Thanks
