After cooling, the reaction mixture was filtered and the solvent removed at the rotovap. The residual oil was distilled on the Kugelrohr apparatus, with some unreacted bromoheptanoate first collected at 80° C., followed by distillation of product at 140° C. A total of 10.9 g. of product was obtained, with about 12-15% O-alkylated material.
