Procedure
To a solution containing methyl 5-[(3,5,5,8,8-pentamethyl-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-2-naphthalenyl) methyl]-2-furoate 6 (15.1 g, 44 mmol) in MeOH (175 mL) and water (175 mL), a solution of NaOH (3.53 g, 88.3 mmol) in water (29 mL) is added. The reaction mixture is stirred overnight. After completion as judged by tlc, the solution is acidified with 1M HCl to pH 2. The crude product is extracted into organic layer using ethyl acetate, and concentrated to afford 5-[(3,5,5,8,8-pentamethyl-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-2-naphthalenyl)methyl]-2-furoic acid 7 (15.0 g, 99% yield). NMR 1.26 (s, 6H), 1.28 (s, 6H), 1.68 (s, 4H), 2.24 (s, 3H), 4.00 (s, 2H), 6.01 (d, 1H), 7.10 (s, 21), 7.23 (d, 1H).
