Hexane → 3-Butylcyclopentanone

THF (40 ml) was added to 1-bromo-4-ethoxy-2,3-difluorobenzene (3.56 g) in a reaction vessel under an atmosphere of nitrogen, and the mixture was cooled to −78° C. n-Butyllithium (1.65 M, in a hexane solution) (9.1 ml) was added dropwise at a temperature of −70° C. or lower. The stirring was continued at −78° C. for another 1.5 hour and 3-butyl-cyclopentanone (2.1 g) obtained in the first step, in a THF (20 ml) solution was added dropwise at a temperature of −70° C. or lower. After the mixture had been stirred at −78° C. for another 1 hour, it was warmed to room temperature, and a saturated aqueous solution of ammonium chloride (50 ml) was added. The mixture was separated, and the water layer was extracted with diethyl ether three times, and then the combined organic layer was washed with brine. The solution was dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate and the solvent was distilled off under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by silica gel chromatography (eluent: ethyl acetate/n-heptane=1/9 by volume) to give 3-butyl-1-(4-ethoxy-2,3-difluorophenyl)cyclopentanol (2.8 g).
