Reaktionsschritte

A small crystal of iodine was added to a mixture of 0.75 g (0.0024 mole) of 1-bromo-3-(4-fluoro-3-phenoxyphenyl)propane and 0.11 g (0.0045 mole) of magnesium powder in 1 ml of tetrahydrofuran. This mixture was heated in a water bath for about three hours. After heating, the clear solution was light grey-brown in color. The solution was cooled to 10° C., and 0.51 g (0.0022 mole) of chloro(4-ethoxyphenyl)dimethylsilane was added. This mixture was stirred for one-half hour and was then heated for an hour. Following dilution with diethyl ether, the reaction mixture was washed successively with 10% hydrochloric acid and a saturated aqueous solution of sodium chloride, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, and filtered. The filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure, leaving a colorless oil weighing 0.95 g as the residue. This oil was purified using a Chromatotron (eluant=ethyl acetate/hexane (2:98)), producing (4-ethoxyphenyl)[3-(4-fluoro-3-phenoxyphenyl)propyl]dimethylsilane as a colorless oil. The proton and 13C nmr spectra were consistent with the proposed structure.
