Procedure

A solution of N-isopropylcyclohexylamine (3.62 g, 4.22 mL, 28.22 mmol) in THF at −78° C. is treated with n-butyl lithium (2.1M in hexane, 13.2 L), and stirred at −78° C. for 0.5 h. The resultant suspension is added dropwise to a suspension of 3-bromo-4-methoxy-5H-furan-2-one (4.95 g, 25.65 mmol) in THF at −78° C. The reaction mixture is stirred at −78° C. for 0.75 h, treated dropwise with a solution of 1-naphthylcarboxaldehyde (4.0 g, 25.65 mmol) in THF, stirred for 0.5 h at −78° C., allowed to warm to 0° C., quenched with saturated NH4Cl and extracted with EtOAc. The extracts are combined, dried over MgSO4 and concentrated in vacuo. The resultant red oil residue is passed through a pad of silica gel using 100% hexanes and 80% EtOAc in hexanes as eluents to afford the title product as a yellow foam, 5.3 g (59% yield), identified by NMR and mass spectral analyses.
