Participants

Reaction Steps

1-(1-Naphthyl)-1-propyne was prepared by literature procedures (H. Kouzai, et al, Bull. Chem. Soc. Jpn., (1995), 398.). The 1-(1-naphthyl)-1-propyne (10.8 g, 0.065 mol) was dissolved in THF, Lindlar's catalyst was added, and the solution was placed under a hydrogen atmosphere. After the reduction was complete, the solvent was removed and replaced with ether. The ether solution was filtered though a plug of silica, and the solvent removed to give the (Z)-1-(1-naphthyl)-propene (11.01 g, 0.65 mol). NMR (CDCl3) 8.1-7.7 (3H, m), 7.6-7.3 (4H, m), 7.0-6.8 (1H, m), 6.2-5.9 (1H, m), 1.8-1.7 (3H, dd).
