Reaktionsschritte

To a 200 mL round bottom flask were added 10 g (70 mmol) of methyl 3-thiophenecarboxylate, 17 g (79 mmol) of 1-tetradecanol, 1 mL methanesulfonic acid, and 50 mL of toluene. This mixture was heated to reflux for 17 hours. After the solvent was removed, the remaining methyl 3-thiophenecarboxylate was removed by kugelrohr distillation. The remaining residue was filtered through a silica gel pad with 10% ethyl acetate in hexane. The solvents were removed from the filtrate to provide 21 g of the desired compound. The NMR data were obtained and were consistent with those of the desired compound.
