Sodium Sulfate → HCID 54315455, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

Compound 21-b (3.8 g, 6.4 mmol) was dissolved in a mixture of 80 ml of ether and 40 ml of THF, and 250 mg (6.6 mmol) of lithium aluminium hydride was added to the solution under ice cooling, followed by stirring at room temperature for one hour and a half. To the mixture was added 1 ml of a saturated aqueous solution of sodium sulfate and insoluble matters were filtered off. The filtrate was diluted with ethyl acetate, and the organic layer was washed with a saturated aqueous solution of sodium chloride and dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate. The solvent was distilled off under reduced pressure, and the residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography [eluent: hexane/ethyl acetate (5/1)] to give the E form (21-c-E; 40%) and the Z form (21-c-Z; 41%) as colorless oily substances.
