1.2 ml of thionyl chloride was added to a solution of 3.34 g of the obtained carboxylic acid in 5 ml of anhydrous benzene, and the mixture was reacted at room temperature for 12 hours. The reaction mixture was concentrated under reduced pressure to give 3.53 g of 12-benzyloxy-2,2-dimethyldodecanoyl chloride as a colorless oily material.
