Procedure
Benzo[b]naphtho[2,3-d]furan (H. G. Pars Pharmaceutical Laboratories, Inc.) was formylated using the procedure of A. Rieche et al., Chem. Ber. 93, 88 (1960). The crude aldehyde appeared to be mainly one isomer accompanied by a small amount of a second aldehyde by TLC. Purification by chromatography (SiO2, PhCH3) followed by recrystallization (CH2Cl2 /hexane) gave the main component in 58% yield identified using NMR techniques to be benzo[b]naphtho[2,3-d]furan-6-carbaldehyde, (2A) mp 169°-171.5°, (C,H). The minor component, obtained in 3.4% yield was shown by NMR to be benzo[b]naphtho2,3-d]-furan-11-carbaldehyde, mp 128°-132°, (C,H), (PhCH3 /hexane).
