Participants

Reaction Steps

1.0 g (9.35 mmol) of 4-ethylpyridine and 2.37 g (9.35 mmol) of 2,6-dichlorophenethyl bromide were reacted in the same manner as in Example 1. The reaction product was purified to obtain 1.45 g of the desired compound (yield: 55.3%). The resulting compound was identified as 1-(2,6-dichlorophenyl)-3-(4-pyridyl)-butane (hereinafter referred to as compound 11) by the following analytical results.
