Participants

Reaction Steps

At the end of reaction, 50 ml of a saturated ammonium chloride aqueous solution and 100 ml of n-hexane were added to the reaction solution. The organic layer was extracted, dried over magnesium sulfate, and filtered. By distilling off the solvent, there was obtained 12 grams of 2-undecene in a substantially quantitative yield.
