Reaction Steps

5-Methyl-4-oxocaproaldehyde (b1) was prepared analogously to a1 by reaction of iso-butyryl chloride and allyl chloride (see I.1.). 45.6 g (356 mmol) of b1 were reacted with cyclopentadiene and potassium tert-butylate and the mixture was worked up, analogously to instructions I.1. Column chromatography gave 19.6 g (35%) of indene b2 as a yellow oil (2 double bond isomers).
