Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

This solution was cooled to -78° C., after which 1.43 g (8 mmols) of hexamethylphosphorus triamide was added and stirred for 5 minutes, followed by further addition of 2 ml of a tetrahydrofuran solution of 91.6 mg (0.40 mmols) of 2-formyl-3-methyl-4-acetoxyquinoline and stirring at -78° C. for 15 minutes and subsequently at -42° C. for 30 minutes. The reaction mixture was added to 20 ml of water and extracted with ethyl acetate, followed by washing with a saturated sodium chloride aqueous solution and drying with sodium sulfate. After removal of the solvent by distillation under reduced pressure, the residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography [Wako Gel C-200 (available from Wako Junyaku Co., Ltd.) (solvent n-hexane : ethyl acetate=15:1)] to obtain 13 mg of 2-(trans-1-nonenyl)-3-methyl-4-acetoxyquinoline (yield 10%) and 15 mg of 2-(cis-1-nonenyl)-3-methyl-4-acetoxyquinoline (yield 12%).
