Procedure

A solution of 1-(2-ethylphenyl)-1-(2-furyl)ethylene (27 g.) in ethanol (150 ml.) in the presence of 10% palladium on charcoal (0.5 g.) was treated with hydrogen at room temperature for 3 hours. The mixture was filtered and evaporated to give a clear oil which was distilled to give (±) 2-[1-(2-ethylphenyl)ethyl]-furan (23.9 g.), b.p. 130°-150° C./20 mm.Hg, in the form of a yellow oil.
