Reaction Steps

Ethyl 2,5-dimethoxy-2,5-dihydrofuran-3-carboxylate (615 mg, 3.044 mmol) was dissolved in methanol (10 mL) and treated with hydrogen (10 bar) over Raney nickel at 40° C. for 2 h. The reaction mixture was evaporated to dryness to give ethyl 2,5-dimethoxy-tetrahydrofuran-3-carboxylate (564 mg, 91%) which was used directly in the next step.
