To a mixture of 1.66 N n-butyl lithium (nBuLi) (328 m in n-hexane solution) and Et2O (100 ml) was added a mixture of 4-n-butylidene-4,5,6,7-tetrahydrobenzo[b]furan (9.60 g) and Et2O (50 ml) dropwise over 5 minutes while maintaining -30~-20° C. by dry ice--carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) cooling. The reaction mixture was stirred at r.t. for 1 hour, and was bubbled by carbon dioxide (CO2) gas for 1 hour. The whole mixture was stirred at r.t. overnight and poured into a mixture of water and Et2O. The separated aqueous layer was adjusted to pH 1.4 with 10% HCl, and extracted by AcOEt. The organic layer was washed with brine, dried over MgSO4, and evaporated to give 4-n-butylidene-4,5,6,7-tetrahydrobenzo[b]-furan-2-carboxylic acid (3.91 g) as a reddish oil, which was used in the next reaction without further purification.
