Procedure
Under an argon atmosphere, a mixture of sodium hydride (60% dispersion in mineral oil, 887 mg, 22.0 mmol), dimethyl carbonate (15 mL) and 3,4-dihydronaphthalen-1(2H)-one (1.46 g, 10.0 mmol) was stirred at 80° C. for 3.5 hr. The reaction mixture was quenched with diluted hydrochloric acid, and extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was dried over sodium carbonate, filtrated, and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (n-hexane/ethyl acetate=1/0-5/1) to give the title compound as a white solid.
