HO(CH2)5C≡CH was prepared by the KAPA-promoted isomerization of HOCH2C≡C(CH2)3CH3 (prepared according to Millar, J.G.; Oehlschlager, A. C. J. Org. Chem. 1984,49, 2332-2338) or HO(CH2)2C≡C(CH2)2CH3 (commercially available from GFS Chemicals; Powell, Ohio). Oxidative coupling of HO(CH2)5C≡CH was carried out in a glass reaction vessel by dissolving 6.95 grams of HO(CH2)5C≡CH in pyridine/methanol (2.0 milliliters/6.2 milliliters) and adding 307 grams of CuCl followed by stirring in the presence of oxygen until all the staring material was consumed. The reaction mixture was worked up with diethyl ether and 4N HCl, the combined organic layers were dried over MgSO4, filtered and concentrated. Recrystallization of the residue from 1/1 hexanes/tert-butyl methyl ether to yield 5.35 grams of HO(CH2)5C≡C—C≡C(CH2)5OH as a pink solid.
