Procedure: A 250 mL round-bottom flask equipped with stir bar was charged with 7-octen-1-ol (1.20 mL, 7.80 mmol). Anhydrous DMF (60 mL) was added, and the solution was allowed to cool to 0° C. (ice-bath). Sodium hydride (2.40 g, 40.0 mmol) was added in portions, and the mixture was allowed to stir until gas evolution ceased. p-Methoxybenzyl chloride (2.1 mL, 16 mmol) was added by a syringe and the mixture was allowed to stir for 24 h. The reaction was quenched by addition of a saturated aqueous solution of sodium bicarbonate (100 mL), and washed with ethyl acetate (5×100 mL). The combined organic layers were washed with water (3×100 mL) to remove dmf, further washed in brine (1×50 mL), dried over MgSO4, filtered, and concentrated in vacuo. The resulting yellow oil was purified by silica gel chromatography (96:4 hexanes:EtOAc), delivering 1-methoxy-4-((oct-7-en1-yloxy)methyl)benzene (946 mg, 3.81 mmol, 49.0% yield) as a colorless oil.

Procedure: To a stirred solution of 152 g of oct-7-en-1-ol (prepared in Example 22 B-1) in 3.4 liters of acetone there was added 1.4 M of Jones Reagent (986 ml) while the mixture was maintained at less than 10° C. The mixture was stirred for 10 min and was quenched with 100 ml of isopropanol. The acetone volume was reduced in vacuo and the residue was diluted with water and extracted three times with equal volumes of ethyl acetate. The combined ethyl acetate extracts were washed two times with water, then with saturated aqueous sodium chloride, dried over magnesium sulfate and evaporated in vacuo to yield 164 g of the title compound having the following physical characteristics: was maintained at less than 10° C was quenched with 100 ml of isopropanol the residue was diluted with water extracted three times with equal volumes of ethyl acetate The combined ethyl acetate extracts were washed two times with water with saturated aqueous sodium chloride, dried over magnesium sulfate evaporated in vacuo

Procedure: A mixture containing 1.7 liter of anhydrous tetrahydrofuran (distilled from sodium/benzophenone ketyl) and 600 g (5.4 mol) of distilled 1,7-octadiene (Aldrich Chemical Co. Inc.) was prepared under nitrogen. Borane in tetrahydrofuran (1 M, 600 ml, 0.60 mol) was added dropwise to the mixture over a 1.0 hr period while the mixture was maintained at 25° C. The resultant solution was stirred for 1 hr at room temperature and then 25 ml of water was added thereto followed by 300 ml of 3 M sodium hydroxide. These additions were followed by 300 ml of 30% aqueous hydrogen peroxide while maintaining the mixture at 30° to 40° C. The mixture was stirred for 15 min and the phases which formed were separated. The aqueous phase was extracted 3 times with an equal volume of pentane. The combined pentane extracts were washed with 200 ml of 10% aqueous sodium bisulfite, then with saturated aqueous sodium chloride and then dried over magnesium sulfate. The mixture was filtered and the filtrate was evaporated and distilled to yield the title compound (bp 62°-64° C., 20 mm) as a colorless oil having the following physical characteristics: was prepared under nitrogen while maintaining the mixture at 30° to 40° C the phases which formed were separated The aqueous phase was extracted 3 times with an equal volume of pentane The combined pentane extracts were washed with 200 ml of 10% aqueous sodium bisulfite with saturated aqueous sodium chloride and then dried over magnesium sulfate The mixture was filtered the filtrate was evaporated distilled
