Procedure
A 500 mL round bottom flask equipped with a mechanical stirrer was charged with 19.8 g (0.177 mol) cyclohexene-1-methanol, and 150 mL of DMSO. Sodium hydride (4.90 g, 95% in purity; 0.194 mol) was slowly added to above mixture in an ice bath over 20 min. After the above mixture was reacted at room temperature for 1 hr, 30.2 g (0.177 mol) of benzylbromide was slowly added to the above mixture over 15 min. The reaction was carried out at 60° C. for 2 hrs. The reaction mixture was cooled to room temperature and was added to water (200 mL), and then extracted with chloroform (3×200 mL), washed with water (2×250 mL) and dried with sodium sulfate. The solvent was evaporated and the residue distilled to give pure product.
