Procedure
To a solution of methyl 5,5-dimethyl-5,6-dihydro-8-(2-thienyl)-2-naphthalenecarboxylate (Compound E5, 430.0 mg, 1.44 mmol) in 3.0 mL of EtOH and 3.0 mL THF was added NaOH (240.0 mg, 6.00 mmol; 3.0 mL of a 2N aqueous solution). The resulting solution was warmed to 35° C. for 6 h, cooled to room temperature and quenched with 1M HCl. The mixture was extracted with EtOAc and the combined organic layers washed with H2 0 and saturated aqueous NaCl before being dried over MgSO4. Removal of the solvents under reduced pressure afforded the title compound as a pale yellow solid.
