10.7 g (0.1 mol) of n-pentyl chloride was dripped into a mixture of 2.5 g (0.1 mol) of magnesium and 300 ml of THF to obtain a Grignard's reagent. This solution was then dripped into a 300 ml THF solution of 45 g (0.1 mol) of 4-(trans-4-(2-(4-chloro-4-silacyclohexyl)ethyl)cyclohexyl)-3'-fluoro-4'-chlorobiphenyl to obtain 4-(trans-4-(2-(trans-4-n-pentyl-4-silacyclohexyl)ethyl)cyclohexyl)-3'-fluoro-4'-chlorobiphenyl. The silacyclohexane rings of the product were a mixture of trans isomers and cis isomers. They were separated by means of chromatography to obtain 31.3 g (yield 69.9%) of the trans isomer.
