Procedure
To a suspension of magnesium turnings (0.26 g, 10.5 mmol) in anhydrous tetrahydrofuran (6 ml) cyclopropyl bromide (1.28 g, 10.5 mmol) in tetrahydrofuran (5 ml) was added dropwise under nitrogen. The reaction mixture was heated at reflux for 1 h after the initial exotherm had subsided before 2-benzoylfuran (12 g, 7.0 mmol) was added as a solution in tetrahydrofuran (10 ml). The reaction mixture was worked up as described in Example 1 to give the title alcohol as an oil. T.l.c. rf=0.23 (SiO2, heptane/THF (7:3)).
