Procedure
To a suspension of 4,5-dibromo-1,2,6,7-tetrahydro-8H-indeno[5,4-b]furan-8-one (18.4 g, 55.4 mmols) in methanol (400 mL) was added 10% Palladium on activated carbon (2.0 g, 50% hydrous) followed by sodium acetate (12.6 g, 154 mmols). The mixture was stirred at 40° C. for 1.5 hours under hydrogen atmosphere (4 kgf/cm2). The catalyst was filtered off and the filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure. Crystals were collected by filtration, washed with water and recrystallized successively with methanol:water=5:1 to obtain 8.0 g (yield: 83%) of the title compound.
