반응 단계

The procedure in Example 6 is followed but using ethyl 2-ethyl-2-methyl-6-[(4,6-diphenyl-2-pyridyl)oxy]hexanoate (3.6 g), potassium hydroxide pellets (0.95 g) dissolved in distilled water (20 cc) and ethanol (50 cc). The reaction mixture is refluxed for 120 hours. The product is purified by chromatography under pressure on silica gel (30-60 mm; eluent: n-hexane-ethyl acetate 75-25) and then by recrystallisation in an n-hexane-ethyl acetate (2-1) mixture (40 cc), white crystals (m.p.=119°-120° C.)
