Reaction Steps
To an ice-cool solution of triphenylphosphine (0.72 g, 2.74 mmol) and bromine (0.41 g, 2.6 mmol) in CH2Cl2, a solution of (4Z)-1-(tetrahydropyran-2-yloxy)-4-decene (16) (0.41 g, 1.71 mmol), prepared according to Example 16, in methylene chloride was added dropwise. Isolation and purification by conventional means afforded the product 17 in 90% yield (0.33 g). 1H NMR (200 MHz ) δ: 5.42 (dtt, J=11.0, 7.0, 7.0, 1.0, 1.0 Hz, 2H, CH=CH-4, 5); 3.41 (t, J=6.6, 6.6 Hz, 2H CH2 -1, 2.20 (dt, J=7.0, 7.0 Hz, 2H, CH2 -3); 2.04 (dr, J=6.5, 6.5 Hz, 2H, CH2 -6); 1.91 (tt, J=6.5, 6.5, 6.5 Hz, 2H, CH2 -2); 1.30 (m, 6H, CH2 -7, 8, 9); 0.89 (t, J=7.0 Hz, CH3). MS [EI, m/z(%)] 220 (M+ -8), 218 (M+, 8), 164 (12), 162 (12), 150 (23), 148 (23), 135 (8), 109 (12), 97 (44), 95 (14), 83 (55), 82 (14), 81 (37), 79 (15), 70 (21), 69 (100), 67 (39), 56 (29), 55 (93), 54 (20), 43 (21), 42 (20), 41 (92), 39 (30). IR (CCl4, cm-1) 3008 (cis CH=CH), 1246 (RCH2CH2Br), 649, 566 (C--Br).
