Reaktionsschritte

Under a nitrogen atmosphere a mixture of 8.0 grams (0.041 mole) of 7-phenyl-6-oxaheptan-1-ol and 1.4 grams of 95% silicon dioxide in 125 ml of methylene chloride was stirred, and 19.8 grams (0.090 mole) of pyridinium chlorochromate was added. Upon completion of addition, the reaction mixture was stirred at ambient temperature for four hours. After this time the reaction mixture was diluted with diethyl ether and then was passed through a column of magnesium silicate. The eluate was concentrated under reduced pressure yielding 6.2 grams of 7-phenyl-6-oxaheptan-1-al. The reaction was repeated.
