Participants

Reaction Steps

LiBr (2.7 g, 31.6 mmol) was flame dried under vacuum and then cooled to room temperature. TBABr (255 mg, 0.79 mmol), (2-chloromethyl-allyloxymethyl)-benzene (3.1 g, 15.8 mmol) and THF (5 mL) were then added and the suspension was stirred at 60° C. for 2 h. The mixture was filtered through Celite and the solvent was removed in vacuo to give the title compound (3.4 g) as a colourless oil which was used in the next step without further purification. 1H NMR (CDCl3): 7.47-7.30 (5H, m), 5.47-5.33 (1H, m), 5.30 (1H, q), 4.56 (2H, s), 4.19 (2H, s), 4.08 (2H, s).
