Reaction Steps

3.50 g (12.7 mmol) of (±)-(3R*, 4aR*, 9bS*)-7-ethoxy-6-fluoro-3-propenyl-1,2,3,4,4a,9b-hexahydrodibenzofuran in THF are hydrogenated for 23 h in a hydrogen atmosphere with addition of 1.8 g of Pd/C. After completion of the uptake of hydrogen, the reaction solution is filtered and concentrated to dryness. The residue is filtered adsorptively (SiO2, toluene:n-heptane=1:1), and the beige solid obtained is recrystallised repeatedly from isopropanol at room temperature, giving (±)-(3R*, 4aR*, 9bS*)-7-ethoxy-6-fluoro-3-propyl-1,2,3,4,4a,9b-hexahydrodibenzofuran as colourless solid (melting point 128° C.).
