To a solution of 16 g oxalic acid diethyl ester in 350 ml THF, 10.1 g KOt-Bu were added at 0° C. Then 10 g 1-furan-2-yl-ethanone in 50 ml THF were added dropwise. After 1 h the reaction mixture was diluted with 300 ml ethyl acetate and 200 mnl water. This solution was acidified with diluted hydrochloric acid to pH 5. The organic layer was separated, washed with 150 ml water, dried over MgSO4, filtered and concentrated under reduced pressure to yield a white solid.
