Reaction Steps

A mixture of 2,4,6-trihydroxybenzaldehyde (3.00 g, 19.5 mmol), 1-bromodecane (25.87 g, 117.0 mmol), K2CO3 (8.07 g, 58.4 mmol), and KI (549 mg, 3.3 mmol) in DMF (150 mL) was stirred for 24 h at 110° C. and then one more portion of 1-bromodecane (5.0 g, 22.6 mmol) was added and continued stirring for another 24 h. The reaction mixture was cooled to 20° C. and extracted with CH2Cl2. The organic phase was washed with brine, dried (Na2SO4), and evaporated. Column chromatography (silica gel, hexane/CH2Cl2, 1:1, v/v) afforded the product (9.86 g, 88%) as yellow oil.
