Procedure

A solution of 80 mg of 60% sodium hydride in 20 ml of N,N-dimethylformamide is stirred at room temperature. A 680 mg portion of 2-(2-methyleneoctadecyl)-1,3-propanediol and 0.61 ml of hexadecylbromide are added and the mixture warmed very slowly to 60°-70° C. The mixture is evaporated, dissolved in ether, and is washed with water and brine then flash chromatographed (5% ethyl acetate:petroleum ether), to give 550 mg of the desired compound as colorless crystals, mp. 37°-38° C.
