Participants

Reaction Steps

1-(2-Methoxyphenyl)-7-phenoxy-1-heptene (7.3) was synthesized as described in 7.1 using 6.1 (2.0 g, 3.85 mmol), dry THF (30 mL), potassium bis(trimethylsilyl)amide (0.77 g, 3.85 mmol), and 2-methoxybenzaldehyde (0.20 g, 1.47 mmol). The title compound (7.3) was isolated as a colorless liquid after purification by flash column chromatography (0.396 g, 91% yield, predominantly cis, cis:trans=93:7).
