9-hydroxy-3-(6-hydroxy-5,5-dimethylhexyl)-8,8-dimethylnonan-2-one

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

Procedure: 8-Hydroxy-2-(6-hydroxy-5,5-dimethyl-hexyl)-7,7-dimethyl-octanoic acid (1.0 g, 3.16 mmol) was dissolved in THF (40 mL) and cooled in an ice-water bath. Methyl lithium (27 mL) was then added at once. The reaction was continued for 2 h at 0 C. The reaction mixture was poured into dilute hydrochloric acid (5 mL concentrated hydrochloric acid in 60 mL water). The organic layer was separated and the aqueous layer was extracted with diethyl ether (2×50 mL). The combined organic layers were dried over sodium sulfate and concentrated in vacuo to give the crude product (1.0 g). The crude product was purified by column chromatography (hexanes:ethyl acetate=4:1, then 1:1) to give 9-hydroxy-3-(6-hydroxy-5,5-dimethyl-hexyl)-8,8-dimethyl-nonan-2-one (0.41 g, yield 41%) and 7-(1-hydroxy-1-methylethyl)-2,2,12,12-tetramethyltridecan-1,13-diol (0.4 g, 38%, not shown) as a by-product. 1H NMR (300 MHz, CDCl3/TMS): (ppm) 3.46 (s, 4 H), 2.65-2.50 (m, 1 H), 2.28 (s, 3 H), 2.60 (br., 2 H), 1.82-1.50 (m, 4 H), 1.50-1.25 (m, 12 H), 1.02 (s, 12 H). 13C NMR (75 MHz, CDCl3/TMS): (ppm) 213.4, 71.7, 53.2, 38.3, 34.9, 31.6, 28.7, 28.3, 23.8.
