16-Hexadecanolide (5.0 g, 0.02 mol) was added to a mixture of HI (30 g) and acetic acid (20 g). The mixture was heated to 100° C. overnight. After cooling it was poured into a cold sodium thiosulphate solution (150 mL, 10%) and extracted using CH2Cl2. The combined organic extracts were dried (MgSO4) and evaporated to give a white solid. The crude product was recrystallised from diethyl ether. Yield: 4.8 g (64%)
