Procedure

5-Trimethylsilyl-3-furaldehyde is treated with carbon tetrabromide and triphenylphosphine in dichloromethane at 0° to give 3-(2,2-dibromoethenyl)-5-trimethylsilylfuran. Treating with n-butyl lithium and 5-phenylpentyl iodide and hexamethylphosphoramide gives 3-(7-phenyl-1-heptynyl)-5-trimethylsilylfuran.
