Participants

Reaction Steps

0.55 g (1.1 mmol) of methyl 4-(8,8-dimethyl-5-p-tolyl-7,8-dihydro-2-naphthylselanylethynyl)-2-methoxybenzoate is dissolved in 15 ml of tetrahydrofuran and 2 drops of water. 0.26 g (6.4 mmol) of sodium hydroxide is added. The medium is stirred for 15 hours, acidified with 2N hydrochloric acid solution and then extracted with ethyl acetate. The solid obtained is purified by chromatography (eluent: 3/7 heptane/ethyl acetate). A white solid is obtained (0.53 g; yield=99%; m.p.=150° C.).
