Reaktionsschritte

n-Butyllithium (1.2 mL 1.92 mmol, 1.6 M/hexanes) was added to a −78° C. solution of 1,4-dibromobenzene (489 mg, 2.07 mmol) in THF (4.2 mL). After 30 min., a solution of cyclobutanone (141 mg, 2.01 mmol) in 1 mL THF was added by cannula, rinsing with 0.5 mL THF. The reaction was allowed to warm to room temperature and after 2 h, saturated NH4Cl solution was added. The resulting mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate (3×30 mL) and the combined ethyl acetate solution was washed with brine. The solution was then dried (Na2SO4), filtered and evaporated. Purification by flash chromatography on silica gel (5%→10% ethyl acetate/hexanes) gave 3-1 (235 mg, 54%).
