A one step synthesis of 5-chloro-4-hydroxy-1-pentene(65%) and 5-bromo-4-hydroxy-1-pentene (81%) was developed. Treatment of epibromohydrin or epichlorohydrin at -73°C with a reagent prepared from vinylmagnesium bromide and a catalytic amount of copper(I) bromide gave the desired products. 5-Bromo-4-hydroxy-1-pentene was cleanly converted to 4.5-epoxy-1-pentene in 99% yield by treatment with potassium hydroxide. A number of derivatives of 5-bromo-4-hydroxy-1-pentene are described.
