Procedure

A solution of 4,5-diisopropylfuran-2-carboxylic acid (196 mg, 1.00 mmol) in diethyl ether (6 ml) was cooled to −18° C., and added dropwise with methyllithium (1.2 M in Et2O, 2.5 ml, 3 mmol), and the mixture was stirred for 45 minutes. The reaction mixture was added with saturated aqueous ammonium chloride, and the mixture was extracted with diethyl ether. The reaction mixture was treated in a conventional manner, and then the resultant was purified by silica gel chromatography [hexane-ethyl acetate (7:1)] to obtain the title compound (162 mg, 84%) as colorless oil.
