To 8-phenyloctylmagnesium bromide (from 24.25 mmol of 8-phenyloctyl bromide and 21.27 mmol of magnesium) in distilled tetrahydrofuran (40 ml) was added 2-(2-methoxyphenyl)-4,4-dimethyloxazoline (17.10 mmol) [A. I. Meyers et al., J. org. Chem., 43, 1372 (1978)] in tetrahydrofuran (20 ml). After stirring for 24 hours, the reaction mixture was worked up to yield 2-12-(8-phenyloctyl)phenyl]-4,4-dimethyloxazoline as an oil. A solution of the oxazoline (11.58 mmol) in methyl iodide (20 ml) was refluxed under argon for 18 hours. Removal of the volatiles afforded the corresponding 3,4,4-trimethyloxazolinium iodide as a white solid (mp 76.5°-78° C.).
