Reaction Steps

The whole of this benzyl 2-(7-phenyl-1-heptenyl)phenyl ether was then treated with hydrogen in the presence of 200 mg of 5% w/w palladium-on-carbon in 250 ml of ethanol at 50° C. for 5 hours at atmospheric pressure. At the end of this time, insoluble materials were removed by filtration, and the filtrate was concentrated by distillation under reduced pressure. The resulting residue was purified by column chromatography through silica gel, using a 5:1 by volume mixture of hexane and ethyl acetate as the eluent, to give 1.03 g (yield 69%) of the title compound as a colorless oil.
