Tetrabutylammonium Fluoride → Methyl 4-(hydroxymethyl)-5-methylfuran-2-carboxylate

A stirred solution of 5-methyl-4-triisopropylsilanyloxymethyl-furan-2-carboxylic acid methyl ester (15) (5.2 g) in tetrahydrofuran (200 mL) was treated with tetrabutylammonium fluoride (1.0 M solution in tetrahydrofuran, 3.2 mL) and stirring continued for 16 hours. The reaction mixture was concentrated in vacuo and the residue taken up in ethyl acetate (350 mL) and washed with water (150 mL). The aqueous phase was re-extracted with ethyl acetate (2×100 mL). The combined extracts were dried, concentrated in vacuo and the residue was purified by flash chromatography eluting with ethyl acetate/pentane (1:1 by volume) to give compound 16 as a yellow oil.
