Procedure

Treatment of 63 g. (0.25 mole) of 1-iodo-trans-1-octen-3one (Example 724) with sodium borohydride in the manner described in Example 726 gave 58 g. of yellow oil. The oil is purified by adsorption chromatography on a magnesia silica gel column using benzene as eluent to give a light yellow oil.
