Reaktionsschritte

A solution of 1-bromo-4-pentylbicyclo[2.2.2]octane (6 g, 23 mmol) in sieve-dried nitrobenzene (100 cm3) is added dropwise to a stirred solution of 4-phenylcyclohexanone (3.9 g, 23 mmol) and anhydrous iron(III)chloride (1.2 g, 9 mmol) in sieve-dried nitrobenzene (100 cm3) maintained at 80° C. through the addition and overnight. The cooled solution is added to a small volume of hydrochloric acid and stirred for 20 min. The organic layer is separated off and steam-distilled to yield a solid residue. This is taken up in dichloromethane and dried (MgSO4). The raw product is crystallised from ethanol to yield the desired 4-[4-(4-pentylbicyclo[2.2.2]octyl)phenyl]cyclohexanone (5.4 g, 69%).
