Procedure

To 4-phenyl-1-butanol (7.0 g, 0.047 mol) was added anhydrous dichloromethane (20 mL). A solution of butyryl chloride (4.79 g, 0.045 mol) in anhydrous dichloromethane (20 mL) was added dropwise. The solution was stirred for 36 hours. At this point the reaction was concentrated under reduced pressure to give a crude oil. Column chromatography [silica gel; eluent hexanes-ethyl acetate (3:1)] provided the desired product (9.8 g, 94%) as a clear viscous liquid. 1H(CDCl3) δ(ppm): 0.94 (t, 3H); 1.61-1.71 (m, 6H); 2.27 (t, 2H); 2.64 (t, 2H); 4.08 (t, 2H); 7.16-7.19 (m, 3H); 7.25-7.29 (m, 2H).
