Procedure
To 26.0 g of 9-decene-1-ol was added 10-drops of pyridine and the mixture was placed into an eggplant flask. To the eggplant flask was added dropwise 24.0 g of thionyl chloride during cooling with ice. After dropping, the mixture was reacted for 8.5 hours at 70° C. After the conclusion of the reaction, the reaction product was diluted with dichloromethane and then washed with an aqueous potassium carbonate solution. The reaction solution was then dried over magnesium sulfate and subsequently concentrated under reduced pressure. The resulting residue was purified by column chromatography to obtain 27.7 g of 10-chloro-1-decene. (Yield: 95%)
