A mixture of 10.0 g of (0.031 mole) of 5-tetradecyloxy-2-furoic acid, 200 ml of acetone and 4.3 g (0.031 mole) of potassium carbonate is stirred at room temperature after which 3.9 g (0.031 mole) of dimethylsulfate is added. The mixture is stirred with heating for about two and one-half hours during which time 10 ml of methanol is added. The mixture is then diluted with 100 ml of acetone, and filtered. The filtrate is evaporated to dryness and recrystallized from methanol to give 5-tetradecyloxy-2-furoic acid methyl ester, M.P. 56°-58° C.
