pentyl benzoate

Conditions: temp:0.00; pressure:0.00; stir:; See reaction.notes.procedure_details.

Procedure: To a stirred solution of acrylic acid 6-{6-[4-(6-hydroxyhexyloxy)phenylethynyl]-naphthalen-2-yloxy)hexyl ester (1.05 g), 5-[4-(6-acryloyloxyhexyloxy)benzoyloxy]-2-hydroxybenzoic acid pentyl ester (1.12 g) and triphenylphosphine (0.59 g) in tetrahydrofuran (20 ml) was added under argon and in a dropwise fashion diethyl azodicarboxylate (DEAD, 0.39 g). Upon complete addition, the reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature overnight, and the solvent was then removed under reduced pressure to give a residue which was purified by flash chromatography using a silica-gel column and cyclohexane/ethyl acetate (8/2) as eluent to give 0.66 g of 5-[4-(6-acryloyloxyhexyloxy)benzoyloxy]-2-[6-[4-[6-(6-acryloyloxyhexyloxy)naphtha len-2-ylethynyl]phenoxy]hexyloxy]benzoyloxy]benzoic acid pentyl ester as white crystalline material. K 39° C. N 113° C. I. Upon complete addition the solvent was then removed under reduced pressure to give a residue which was purified by flash chromatography

Conditions: temp:0.00; pressure:0.00; stir:; See reaction.notes.procedure_details.
