3,4-dihydro-2H-pyran → 2-But-3-enoxyoxane

Participants

Reaction Steps

In a 1000 ml rb flask were placed 3-buten-1-ol (7.21 g, 100.00 mmol), 3,4-dihydro-2H-pyran (12.62 g, 150.00 mmol) and pyridinium p-toluenesulfonate (2.51 g, 10.00 mmol) in 350 ml of anhydrous dichloromethane. The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 4 h. Then the reaction mixture was concentrated and the residue was purified by column with Hexane/Ethyl acetate=100/5 to provide 13.90 g of the desired product as an oil (89.0%). 1H-NMR (DMSO-d6) δ 5.851-5.742 (m, 1H), 5.103-5.011 (d, 1H), 4.997-4.985 (d, 1H), 4.555-4.537 (t, 1H), 3.745-3.611 (m, 2H), 3.433-3.347 (m, 2H), 2.290-2.236 (m, 2H), 1.698-1.675 (m, 2H), 1.611-1.566 (m, 4H).
