Reaktionsschritte

1,5-dihydroxynaphthalene (2.95 g, 18.4 mmol), 1-bromooctane (8.2 g, 42.5 mmol), and potassium carbonate (50 g, 0.36 mol) was mixed in N,N-dimethylformamide and heated at 90° C. for 5 h. The potassium carbonate was filtered off and the reaction mixture was quenched with water and extracted two times with ether. The combined organic phase was then washed once with 1M HCl, two times with water, and evaporated. The residual brown solid was recrystallised in ethanol to form 1,5-bis(octyloxy)naphthalene (4.96 g, 12.9 mmol) as brown crystals. 1H-NMR (CDCl3, δ): 0.89 (t, 6H), 1.2-1.4 (m, 16H), 1.4-1.6 (m, 4H), 1.91 (m, 4H), 4.12 (t, 4H), 6.81 (d, 2H), 7.34 (t, 2H), 7.83 (d, 2H) MS MALDI-TOF (m/z): 384.266
