The reaction mixture was allowed to warm to room temperature and stirred overnight. The mixture was concentrated under reduced pressure, and the residue was suspended in 20% diethyl ether-hexanes. Solids were removed by filtration then the mixture was concentrated under reduced pressure. Purification by flash chromatography (5% EtOAc-hexanes) gave 3-(cycloheptylmethoxy)benzaldehyde as a colorless oil. Yield (3.9 g, 41%): 1H NMR (400 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ 9.95 (s, 1H), 7.46-7.51 (m, 2H), 7.39-7.40 (m, 1H), 7.25 (dt, J=6.8, 2.6 Hz, 1H), 3.81 (d, J=6.8 Hz, 2H), 1.88-1.93 (m, 1H), 1.76-1.82 (m, 2H), 1.22-1.68 (m, 10H).
