Procedure

First, N-(4-bromobutyl)phthalimide is synthesized from a mixture of 30 mmol potassium phthalimide and 100 mmol 1,4 dibromobutane in 50 ml DMF. The solution is stirred for 2 hours at 60° C., and the DMF and 1,4-dibromobutane is evaporated off in vacuo. The remaining residue is extracted with CHCl3 and H2O. The resulting white compound is recrystallized from ethyl alcohol. See Chem. Pharm. Bull. 32:3428 (1984). ##STR2##
