Participants

Reaction Steps

Compound 7-a, 4-chloro-1-butanol, (CAS 928-51-8) (100 g, 920 mmol) was dissolved in CH2Cl2 (1000 mL) at room temperature. Imidazole (CAS 288-32-4) (81.5, 1200 mmol) and TBDMS-Cl (CAS 18162-48-6) (152 g, 1010 mmol) was added at 0° C. The mixture was stirred for 4 h at rt. The mixture was filtered off. The filtrate was washed with 10% aqueous HCl-solution and brine. After evaporation of the filtrate, we get the product 7-c as a clear oil (100 g, 50%).
