Water → N-(5-Bromopentyl)-N-isopropylheptanamide

TPP (4.45 g, 9.34 mmol) was added to a 0° C. solution of alcohol 6 (2.00 g, 7.78 mmol) in dry CH2Cl2 (50 mL). After 10 min, CBr4 (3.10 g, 9.34 mmol) was added and the stirring was continued at 0° C. After 2 h, water (20 mL) was added and the reaction mixture was extracted with EtOAc (3×50 mL). The combined extracts were washed with water (2×20 mL), brine (20 mL), dried over Na2SO4, and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by SiO2 column chromatography using 30-35% ethyl acetate/hexane to afford 7 (2.20 g, 91%).
