4-(Decyloxy)benzoic acid → HCID 19966052, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

Following a procedure similar to that described in Example 21, but using 4-decyloxybenzoic acid and 2-t-butyl-5-(4-cycloheptyl-3-oxobutyl)aniline as starting materials, in relative proportions similar to those used in that Example, the title compound was obtained as crystals, melting at 98°-99° C. (after recrystallization from a mixture of ethyl acetate and hexane). The 2-t-butyl-5-(4-cycloheptyl-3-oxobutyl)aniline used as a starting material was prepared following a similar procedure to that described in Preparation 7, but using 2-t-butyl-5-(4-cycloheptyl-3-oxobutyl)-1-nitrobenzene (prepared by a procedure similar to that described in Preparation 6).
