Procedure
To a solution containing 5-[(3,5,5,8,8-pentamethyl-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-2-naphthalenyl)methyl]-2-furoic acid 7 (20.15 g, 61.77 mmol) in methylene chloride (310 mL), thionyl chloride (45 mL, 617 mmol) is added. The reaction is refluxed for 5 hours and another batch of thionyl chloride (45 mL, 617 mmol) is added. The reaction is stirred overnight at room temperature. The solution is concentrated to a syrup and passed through a pad of silica gel (50 g), washed with 3% hexanes, and concentrated in vacuo to afford 5-[(3,5,5,8,8-pentamethyl-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-2-naphthalenyl)methyl]-2-furoyl chloride 8 (17 g, 80% yield). NMR 1.26 (s, 6H), 1.28 (s, 6H), 1.68 (s, 4H), 2.25 (s, 3H), 4.00 (s, 2H), 6.11 (d, 1H), 7.10 (s, 1H), 7.11 (s, 1H), 7.41 (d, 1H).
