Procedure
A mixture of 3-bromo-8,8-dimethyl-5,6,7,8-tetrahydronaphthalen-2-ol (Compound A-2, 5.77 g, 22.62 mmol); iodoethane (7.2 mL, 90.5 mmol), and potassium carbonate (4.68 g, 34 mmol) in acetone (50 mL) was stirred at 70° C. overnight. The solvent was removed in vacuo. The residue was purified by column chromatography (silica gel, 2.5% ethyl acetate in hexane) to afford the title compound as a pale yellow oil.
