Reaction Steps

Vitride (3.3M in toluene, 19 mL, 62.7 mmol) was added with syringe to a flask filled with Argon gas, adjusted to 0° C., and morpholine (5.5 ml, 62.7 mmol) was added slowly dropwise with syringe. Then, toluene (31 ml) was added dropwise with syringe to produce vitride solution. 63 ml of a solution including 4-{4-[2-(4-propyl-cyclohexyl)-ethyl]-phenyl}-cyclohexane carboxylic acid methyl ester (2.3 g, 6.27 mmol) obtained in Example 5-2 in toluene a solution was added to another flask filled with argon gas, and vitride solution was added slowly dropwise at −70° C. for 30 minutes. Then, the solution was stirred with maintaining −30 to −50° C. for 6 hours and water was added very slowly dropwise to the flask. After reaction, 1M HCl was slowly added to the flask to neutralize the reaction solution. White precipitate was filtered under reduced pressure and the filtrate was extracted by toluene (20 ml×three times). The organic layer was collected, washed by distilled water (10 ml×two times), dried with anhydrous Na2SO4 and concentrated under reduced pressure. The obtained residue was purified by column chromatography (hexane:ether=5:1, Rf=0.32) to produce 0.96 g (45%) of trans-4-{4-[2-(4-propyl-cyclohexyl)ethyl]phenyl}cyclohexane carbaldehyde.
