Procedure
1.1 Grams (46 mmol) of magnesium was dispersed in 10 ml of THF, and 2.2 g (20 mmol) of ethyl bromide was dropwise added under nitrogen current. The mixture was allowed to react for 10 minutes, and then a THF solution of 2.9 g (10 mmol) of the 4-methoxyimino-5-methyl-6-bromothiochroman obtained in the above (1) was gradually added at room temperature. The mixture was refluxed for 3 hours and then cooled to room temperature, and carbon dioxide gas was bubbled in for 1 hour. To the reaction mixture was added 5% hydrochloric acid, and the mixture was extracted with ether. An ether layer was extracted with a 5% potassium carbonate aqueous solution, and an aqueous layer was neutralized with concentrated hydrochloric acid. The neutralization product was extracted with ethyl acetate, and the extract was washed with a saturated sodium chloride aqueous solution. The washed extract was dried over sodium sulfate, and then the solvent was distilled off to give 1.6 g (yield 63%) of 4-methoxyimino-5-methylthiochroman-6-carboxylic acid.
