Allyl chloride (97.88 g, 1.28 mol) in dry tetrahydrofuran (500 ml) was added to a suspension of magnesium turnings (60.08 g, 2.47 mol) in dry tetrahydrofuran (50 ml) at such a rate as to maintain steady reflux. The mixture was then heated under reflux for a further hour. 4-Chlorobenzaldehyde (120 g, 854 mmol) in dry tetrahydrofuran (600 ml) was then added dropwise and the mixture refluxed for a further 2 hours. After being cooled to room temperature the mixture was poured into ice/water, carefully acidified with 1M sulphuric acid and extracted with ether. The combined extracts were washed with brine, dried and evaporated in vacuo to give crude 4-(4-chlorophenyl)but-1-en-4-ol (169.4 g approximately 92% pure) which was used without further purification.
