Williamson Ether Synthesis: The ether prepared in this experiment is a methylphenoxyacetic acid, which is a phenolic (benzene ring attached to something is a phenyl group) ether that is prepared from p-methylphenol (p-cresol) and chloroacetic acid. What is the percent yield obtained? Also, can you write balanced equation. materials used: 4.5 g of potassium hydroxide 2.55 g of p-cresol 6.70 mL of a 50 % aqueous solution (g/mL) of a-chloroacetic acid Final Product characterization: 2.30 g of a pale white solid
