Procedure

Reaction Scheme 6 discloses specific synthetic steps leading to 4-(1,1,4-trimethylpentyl)phenylethyne (Compound 32). In this synthetic route 4-(1-oxo-4-methyl-pentyl) bromobenzene (Compound 29, obtained as shown in Reaction Scheme 5) is reacted under a nitrogen atmosphere with trimethylaluminum in hexane to yield 4-(1,1,4-trimethylpentyl)bromobenzene (Compound 33). The bromobenzene derivative 33 is converted through the corresponding trimethylsilylethyne derivative 34 into the target intermediate 32 by treatment with trimethylsily ethyne and subsequently with KOH in isopropanol, as described above. ##STR10##
