33 g (0.15 mole) of trimethylsulfoxonium iodide were added at room temperature to a solution of 17 g (0.15 mole) of potassium tert-butylate in 150 ml of dried dimethyl sulfoxide. The mixture was stirred for 0.5 hour, after which a solution of 32.5 g (0.15 mole) of 5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-5,5,8,8-tetramethyl-2-naphthaldehyde in 100 ml of tetrahydrofuran was added dropwise. Stirring was continued for 1 hour, after which the mixture was poured onto water and extracted with ether. The organic phase was washed with water, dried over magnesium sulfate and evaporated down. 31.3 g of (5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-5,5,8,8-tetramethyl-2-naphthalenyl)-oxirane remained. The structure was determined by H-NMR spectroscopy.
