Procedure
To a cooled (-78° C.) solution of lithium diisopropylamide (20 mmol) in a mixture of THF (20 mL) and hexane (8 mL) (obtained in situ from the corresponding diisopropylamine and n-BuLi) was added slowly the compound obtained in step 1(3.96 g, 18 mmol) in anhyd. THF(10 mL). The mixture was stirred for 30 minutes and 1,8-diiodooctane (7.19 g, 20 mmol) in hexamethylphosphoramide (3.50 g, 20 mmol), was added. The mixture was stirred at -78° C. for 30 minutes, slowly brought to 0° C. over a period of 2 h and quenched by the cautious addition of 50 mL of 12% aqueous sodium chloride solution. The mixture was extracted with ether, washed with brine, dried and the solvent was evaporated. The crude product was purified to an oil (3.23 g) by a flash chromatography over silica using hexane to 1% EtOAc in hexane as an eluant; 1H NMR (300 MHz, CDCl3) δ: 7.35(m, 5H), 5.15(s,2H), 3.20(t,8 Hz,2H), 2.20(m, 1H), 2.0(m, 1H), 1.2-1.8(m,22H)
