Participants

Reaction Steps

2 g (4.7 mmol) of dibromotriphenylphosphorane are added to a solution of 1.15 g (4.6 mmol) of the alcohol obtained in Step C in 25 ml of anhydrous acetonitrile. The medium is stirred for 1 hour at ambient temperature; the solvent is then evaporated in vacuo. The residue obtained is taken up in a mixture of ether/hexane (1/1); the solid formed is then filtered off over Celite. Evaporation of the filtrate yields the brominated compound of the title in the form of a chestnut-brown syrup.
