Reaction Steps

13 mg of xanthocillin X monomethyl ether was dissolved in 2 ml of DMF and 40 mg of potassium carbonate was added thereto. Further, 50 μl of n-hexyl bromide was added thereto and the mixture thus formed was extracted with 30 ml portions of ethyl acetate thrice. The extracts were combined, successively washed with water and a saturated aqueous solution of sodium chloride and dried over sodium sulfate. The sodium sulfate was filtered off and the solvent was distilled from the filtrate. Thus 15 mg of 1-(4'-n-hexyloxyphenyl)-4-(4'-methoxyphenyl)-2,3-diisocyano-1,3-butadiene was obtained in the form of a brown solid. Yield: 94%.
