Reaction Steps

This compound was prepared in a manner analogous to that of Example 4, Step E, by hydrogenation of 1.0 gram (0.0027 mole) of 1-(4-chlorophenyl)-1-cyclopropyl-4-(3-phenoxyphenyl)-1-butene in the presence of 0.35 gram of Raney nickel in 75 mL of ethanol. This procedure yielded 0.8 gram of 1-(4-chlorophenyl)-1-cyclopropyl-4(3-phenoxyphenyl)butane as an a oil. The nmr spectrum was consistent with the proposed structure.
