Abstract
An insoluble polymer support system was used as a unique method of blocking one functional group of a completely symmetrical difunctional compound. The monotetrahydropyranyl and monotrityl ethers of the symmetrical diols, HO—(CH2)n—OH, where n = 2,4,6,8, and 10, were prepared. Reaction conditions for the preparation of the monotetrahydropyranyl ether of 1,10-decanediol were optimized.
