“…Purification by flash chromatography (20 % ethyl acetate in hexane) afforded 191.0 mg of 3 n (78 % yield including minor isomers). 1 H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl 3 ): d = 7.58-7.63 (m, 6 H), 7.38-7.51 (m, 9 H), 6.38 (dt, J = 18.5, 1.5 Hz, 1 H), 6.18 (dt, J = 18.5, 6.0 Hz, 1 H), 2.41-2.46 (m, 2 H), 2.37 (t, J = 7.3 Hz, 2 H), 1.87 ppm (t, J = 7.3 Hz, 2 H); 13 C NMR (100 MHz, CDCl 3 ): d = 150.0, 136.0, 134.6, 129.8, 127.9, 126.5, 119.6, 35.5, 24.3, 16.6 ppm; spectra matched those found in the literature. [12] (E)-1-(Triethylsilyl)-1-buten-3-ol (3 o): 3-Butyne-2-ol and triethylsilane were reacted by following the general hydrosilylation procedure and 900 mL of the crude reaction mixture were collected.…”
