2-Naphthoyl chloride → HCID 68617571, compound

Temperature

-20 °C

Lithium diisopropylamide (133.0 mL of a 2.0 M solution, 0.266 mol) is placed into a 500 mL three-necked round-bottomed flask fitted with a magnetic stirrer, internal thermometer, argon inlet, and addition funnel. The flask is cooled to −78° C. cis 3-Hexenyl acetate (17.80 g, 0.125 mol) is dissolved in THF (10 mL) and the resulting solution added to the flask over 45 min. Once addition is complete, the mixture is stirred for an additional 15 min. before being treated with a solution of 2-naphthoyl chloride (22.51 g, 0.118 mol) dissolved in THF (30 mL) over 30 min. The mixture is warmed to −20° C. and stirred at that temperature for 18 h. After warming to 0° C., the mixture is quenched with 20% HCl (70 mL). The mixture is poured into a separatory fimnel containing ether (150 mL) and water (250 mL). The aqueous layer is extracted with ether (150 mL). The combined organic layers are washed with saturated NaHCO3 solution (2×100 mL), water (2×150 mL) and brine (150 mL), dried over MgSO4 and filtered. The solvent is removed by rotary evaporation to give an orange/red oil. The oil is purified by column chromatography (elution with 2% ethyl acetate/petroleum ether) to yield a colorless oil having 1H and 13C NMR spectra consistent with the desired product.
