Procedure
A mixture of 5-oxohept-6-ynoic acid 3 (1.0 g), 4-dimethylaminopyridine (DMAP, 0.87 g) and p-toluenethiol (1.77 g) dissolved in dry dichloromethane (15 mL) was stirred at room temperature for 72 h. The reaction mixture was then diluted with ethyl acetate (40 mL) and the resulting organic phase washed with acidified water (2×15 mL, made from adding 2 ml of 1N HCl to 250 ml of deionised water) and finally saturated brine (1×10 mL). Volatiles were removed under reduced pressure (rotary evaporation) to yield a reddish brown ‘sticky’ residue which was further purified using silica based flash chromatography (Silica gel 100 C18-reversed phase, Fluka cat. No. 60754). A mobile phase consisting of hexane:ethyl acetate (60:40 v:v) was used to elute the product 7, (0.32 g, TLC Rf=0.50 using a mobile phase of hexane:ethyl acetate (25:10 v/v) acidified with acetic acid). 1H NMR (400 MHz, acetone-d6): δ 1.71 (p, 2H), 2.21 (t, 2H), 2.23 (s, 6H), 2.45 (t, 2H), 2.83 (d, 2H), 4.78 (t, 1H), 7.09 (d, 4H), 7.30 (d, 4H).
