-78 °C

To a stirred solution of 7-methoxybenzofuran (3.0 g) in tetrahydrofuran (60 ml) cooled to -78° C. under an atmosphere of nitrogen was added dropwise n-butyllithium (1.6M in hexanes, 15.2 ml). After stirring at -78° C. for 30 minutes, magnesium bromide diethyl etherate (6.3 g) was added in single portion and the reaction mixture allowed to warm to 0° C. and stirred for 30 minutes. Cyclopropyl cyanide (1.8 ml) was then added dropwise and the mixture allowed to warm slowly to room temperature and stirred for 18 h. Aqueous hydrochloric acid (2M, 50 ml) was added to the reaction mixture and stirring continued for 1 h. The mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate (250 ml), then washed successively with water (50 ml) and brine (50 ml). The organic layer was separated and dried over magnesium sulfate, filtered and concentrated in vacuo. Purification by flash chromatography on silica eluting with 5-20% ethyl acetate in hexane afforded the title compound as a yellow oil (0.96 g).
