Reaction Steps

According to example 61, 10.0 g of 3-iodobenzyl alcohol (Aldrich) was treated with 30 mL of cyclopentene using 0.96 g of Pd(OAc)2, 2.60 g of tri-ortho-tolylphosphine, and 6.6 mL of Et3N. The resulting olefin mixture was hydrogenated for 2.5 h using 0.62 g of 5% Pt(C) in MeOH to afford 5.77 g (76%) of 3-cyclopentylbenzyl alcohol as a light yellow liquid.
