A solution of 3.4 g (7.72 mmol) of 4,5-dibromo-1-dodecylazacycloheptan-2-one in 5.79 g (0.054 mol) of 2,6-lutidine was refluxed for 3 hours. After standing at room temperature for 20 hours, toluene was added, and the solution was filtered. The filtrate was concentrated in vacuo and distilled to give 3.8 g of a crude oil which was subjected to flash chromatography (silica gel; 3:1 petroleum ether/ether V/V) to yield pure product.
