Procedure

10 g of 8-benzyl-1-methoxymethoxynaphthalene was dissolved in 100 ml of anhydrous ether, followed by the addition of 6.5 ml of tetramethylethylenediamine. 27 ml of a 1.6 M solution of n-butyllithium in hexane was dropped into the obtained mixture under cooling with ice. The obtained mixture was stirred at 0° C. for one hour, followed by the dropwise addition of 2.7 ml of methyl iodide. The obtained mixture was stirred at room temperature for one hour and poured into a saturated aqueous solution of ammonium chloride. The obtained mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate and distilled in a vacuum to remove the solvent. The residue was dissolved in 150 ml of acetone, followed by the addition of 60 ml of 6N hydrochloric acid. The obtained mixture was stirred at room temperature for one hour, followed by the addition of water. The obtained mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate and distilled in a vacuum to remove the solvent. The residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (developer: 3% ethyl acetate/hexane) to give 6 g of the title compound as a yellow oil.
