Procedure

To a mixture of (E,E)-4-ethyl-2,4-hexadien-1-ol (1.0 g), triphenylphosphine (2.29 g), phthalimide (1.17 g), and tetrahydrofuran (30 ml) at room temperature was added a solution of diethyl azodicarboxylate (1.52 g) in tetrahydrofuran (5 ml). The mixture was stirred at room temperature for 2 days. The reaction mixture was diluted with dichloromethane, washed with water and brine, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, and evaporated in vacuo. The residue was chromatographed on silica gel (hexane-dichloromethane, 2:3) to give 0.42 g of N-(4-ethyl-2,4-hexadien-1-yl)phthalimide as crystals.
