Participants

Reaction Steps

7-[4-(Benzyloxy)phenoxy]heptanal 62.2 was synthesized analogous to the preparation of 62.1 using 61.2/20.4 (0.624 g, 2 mmol) and diisobutylaluminum hydride (4.5 mL, 4.5 mmol, using a 1M solution in hexanes) in THF (20 mL). Purification by flash column chromatography on silica gel gave 62.2 (0.39 g, 63% yield) as a white solid (m p 65-67° C.).
