Participants

Reaction Steps

A 250 mL 3-necked flask was equipped with a thermocouple pocket, magnetic stirrer and condenser. PCC (13.9 g, 0.64 mols), sodium acetate (1.22 g, 0.015 mol), stavox (0.01 g) and dichloromethane (100 mL) were added to the flask. 4-[(1,5-dimethylhexyl)oxy]butan-1-ol (10.0 g, 0.05 mol) was added over 5 minutes with stirring. The reaction was stirred for 3 hrs at room temperature. After this time the reaction mixture contained ca. 82% of the desired product (RPA GC).
