Participants

Reaction Steps

(2E,4E)-dodeca-2,4-dienoic acid (2.5 g) was dissolved in dichloromethane (25 ml). Oxalyl chloride (2.23 ml) was added and the reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 3 h. Solvent and excess oxalyl chloride were removed, and the residue was stripped several times with DCM. The crude acid chloride was used as such in next step.
