Procedure

To a moisture protected solution of 28.4 ml of phosphorous oxychloride in 200 ml of carbon tetrachloride is added dropwise with stirring a solution of 50 g of 1-hexadecanol in 125 ml of carbon tetrachloride. After stirring at ambient temperature for 18 hours, the solvent is removed and the residue evaporated with toluene several times to give 71 g of the desired product as a vacuum dried water white oil.

Workup

  1. customthe solvent is removed
  2. customthe residue evaporated with toluene several times
