Participants

Reaction Steps

Esterification of optically active 1-(4'-heptyloxybiphenyl-4-yl)-propane-2-ol (prepared from R-propylenoxide and 4'-heptyloxybiphenyl-4-yl-magnesiumbomide) with butyric acid in a similar way as described in example 2 yields optically active 1-(4'-heptyloxybiphenyl-4-yl)-2-propyl butyrate. In a similar way the following 2-propanol derivatives yield the corresponding esters by sterification with aliphatic carboxylic acids: ##STR60##
