Procedure

In 300 ml of toluene, 83.1 g (0.5 mol) of p-cyclohexylphenol was dissolved and subsequently, 150 g of 2-chloroethyl vinyl ether, 25 g of sodium hydroxide, 5 g of tetrabutylammonium bromide and 60 g of triethylamine were added and reacted at 120° C. for 5 hours. The reaction solution was washed with water, excess chloroethyl vinyl ether and toluene were distilled off and the obtained oil was purified by distillation under reduced pressure to obtain 4-cyclohexylphenoxyethyl vinyl ether.
