Participants

Reaction Steps

As in Example 136, 1-butyl-7-methoxy-2-naphthalenemethanol (2.25 g) was oxidized by using the reagent prepared from dimethylsulfoxide (0.54 mL) and oxalyl chloride (0.9 mL) in dry dichloromethane (25 mL). The usual work up gave 2 g of 1-butyl-7-methoxy-2-naphthalenecarboxaldehyde and distillation of a sample on a Kugelrohr apparatus (138°-140° C.; 0.1 mm) furnished the analytical specimen. Anal.
