Reaction Steps

By the procedure used to prepare the compound of Example 2, the title compound is prepared from 24 mL of a 2.5M n-butyllithium solution in hexanes, 6.07 g of diisopropylamine, 5.5 mL of isobutyronitrile, 7.32 g of 1,6-dibromohexane, and 120 mL of tetrahydrofuran. The IR and 1H NMR spectra of the white solid (7.7 g) obtained were consistent with structure of the desired product.
