Procedure

In the atmosphere of argon, 55.5 g of 7,8,9,10-tetrahydrobenzo[b]naphtho[2,1-d]furan, 119 g of 2,3-dichloro-5,6-dicyano-1,4-benzoquinone and 1 L of anhydrous 1,4-dioxane were placed in a flask. The resulting mixture was stirred under reflux for 12 hours. After cooling to room temperature, the reaction solution was extracted with toluene, and deposited solids were filtered out. The filtrate was concentrated by means of a rotary evaporator, and residues were purified by silica gel column chromatography, whereby 32.7 g of (yield: 60%) of benzo[b]naphtho[2,1-d]furan was obtained.
