Reaktionsschritte

Benzofuran was treated with butyllithium in ether followed by cyclopentanone. The resulting alcohol was dehydrated with toluenesulfonic acid in toluene to afford 2-cyclopenten-1-ylbenzofuran. Treatment with maleimide gave a cycloadduct which was aromatized by treatment with tetrachloroquinone. 1H NMR (DMSO-d6) δ 11.29 (s, 1H), 8.60 (d, 1H), 7.82 (d, 1H), 7.66 (t, 1H), 7.52 (t, 1H), 3.23 (m, 4H), 2.30 (quintet, 2H).
