Reaktionsschritte

A solution of 3-methylbutylmagnesium bromide is prepared by treating 15 g. (0.1 mole) 3-methylbutyl bromide with 2.7 g. (1.1 eq) magnesium turnings in 50 ml. dry tetrahydrofuran. The resultant Grignard reagent is dropwise added to a cold (-10° C.) solution of 36.1 g. (1.1 eq) 1,12-dibromododecane and 0.2 g. (1 m mole) dilithiumtetrachloro cuprate in 75 ml. dry tetrahydrofuran. The solution is stirred for one hour, evaporated, and fractionally distilled in vacuo to yield 15-methylhexadecylbromide as a colorless liquid.
