Furfural → 1-(2-Furyl)but-3-yn-1-ol

Participants

Reaction Steps

Reaction and after-treatment were carried out in the same manner as in Example 16 except that an equimolar amount of furfural was used in place of 5-methylfurfural, and that cetyltrimethylammonium chloride and tetrahydrofuran were used in place of tetrabutylammonium bromide and toluene, respectively, in the same weights as those of the latter, to obtain 44.0 g of the fraction of 2-(1-hydroxy-3-butynyl)furan (content, 99.4%) (yield, 80.3%).
