THF (70 mL) was added followed by 1,2-dibromoethane (381 mg, 2.03 mmol), and the mixture was brought to the boiling point for 1 minute, then and cooled down to room temperature. A solution of 6-bromohexene (8.28 g, 50.75 mmol) in THF (30 mL) was transferred via cannula to the magnesium flask and the mixture was refluxed overnight and cooled to −78° C. A solution of 2-naphthaldehyde (6.10 g, 39.04 mmol) in THF (30 mL) was transferred via cannula to the Grignard reagent and the mixture was slowly warmed to 0° C. over 3 hours and kept at that temperature for 2 hours. The reaction was quenched with a saturated aqueous ammonium chloride solution and THF was evaporated in vacuo. The aqueous residue was poured into a separating funnel containing water and the compound was extracted with diethyl ether (2×100 mL). The combined organic layers were washed with brine, dried over magnesium sulfate and concentrated. The residue was purified by flash chromatography (10% to 15% ethyl acetate in hexane), affording the title compound 181 in 89% yield (8.33g). 1H NMR: (300 MHz, CDCl3) δ: 7.85-7.78 (m, 4H), 7.51-7.44 (m, 3H), 5.85-5.72 (m, 1H), 5.02-4.91 (m, 2H), 4.87-4.82 (m, 2H), 2.08-2.01 (m, 2H), 1.94-1.80 (m, 2H), 1.53-1.23(m, 4H). MS (ESI)=223 (MH+—H2O).
