Reaktionsschritte

To a solution of DMF (59 g, 0.805 mol) in anhydrous DCM (300 mL) was added slowly at 0° C. under N2 atmosphere phosphorous oxy-chloride (123 g, 0.84 mol). The mixture was stirred at rt for 2 h. To this was added slowly 2-butyl-1-benzofuran (35 g, 0.21 mol) in anhydrous DCM (100 mL). The reaction mixture was slowly heated to 60° C. for 72 h, cooled to rt and poured into ice and extracted with EtOAc. The organic layer was washed with water, brine and dried over MgSO4. The solvent was removed under vacuum and the crude product purified by column chromatography over silica gel (PetEther/EtOAc) to give 2-butyl-1-benzofuran-3-carbaldehyde (30 g, 74%) as a light brown liquid.
