The mixture was stirred at room temperature for 1 h and heated at reflux for 0.5 h. After cooling 1,2-dibromoethane (12.4 ml, 10 equiv.) was added, and the reaction mixture was allowed to stand at room temperature for 192 h. The reaction mixture was filtered and evaporated. The residue was pumped in vacuo, but still contained ca. 30% starting aldehyde, so the above procedure was repeated.
