Procedure
A solution of ethyl 9-hydroxy-4,4-dimethylnonanoate (example 285, step f) (0.44 g) in DCM (19 mL) at 0° C. was treated with carbon tetrabromide (0.76 g) followed by triphenylphosphine (0.60 g) and the reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature overnight. Further amounts of carbon tetrabromide (0.76 g) and triphenylphosphine (0.60 g) were added and stirring continued for 3 hours. The solvent was removed by evaporation then the mixture was triturated with cyclohexane and the resultant solid removed by filtration. The solid was washed with cyclohexane and the filtrate was concentrated to about 15 mL and left to stand overnight. The solid which came out of solution was removed by filtration, washed with cyclohexane and the filtrate evaporated to afford the subtitled compound as a pale brown oil. Yield 0.56 g.
