Procedure
In a nitrogen atmosphere, n-butyllithium (1.56 M hexane solution, 18.4 ml) was added at −35° C. to a solution (50 ml) of the 4,7-dimethylbenzofuran (3.5 g) in dry tetrahydrofuran. Then the resulting mixture was stirred for 15 min and N,N-dimethylformamide (5.6 ml) was added dropwise to the mixture. Next, the reaction mixture was heated to room temperature and ethyl acetate was added to the mixture. The organic layer was washed with brine and dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate. After evaporating the solvent, the resulting crude crystals were washed with n-hexane to give 4,7-dimethylbenzofuran-2-carbaldehyde (2.3 g) as a pale yellow solid.
