Next, 1.50 g (7.81 mmol) of 1-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)-3-ethylcarbodiimide hydrochloride and 2.0 g (7.81 mmol) of palmitic acid are added and the reaction mixture is stirred overnight at room temperature. The reaction is acidified with 1.0N HCl and extracted three times with ethyl acetate. The combined organic layers are washed with brine, dried over MgSO4, and concentrated in vacuo. The residue is recrystallized from pentane to give 2.0 g (91%) of 4-hydroxy-3-[1-oxohexadecyl]-2(5H)-furanone, mp 81°-83° C.
