Reaction Steps

Ethyl 5-{[(trifluoromethyl)sulfonyl]oxy}-1a,2,3,7b-tetrahydro-1H-cyclopropa[a]naphthalene-1-carboxylate (0.2 g, 0.5 mmol) was mixed with Zn(CN)2 (0.82 mmol) and Pd(Ph3P)4 (56 mg, 10 mol %) in DMF (4 ml), bubbled with argon for 5 min and heated at stirring in a closed vial for 14 h at 100° C. Reaction was monitored by GC. The reaction mixture was concentrated by rotary evaporation, mixed with saturated NH4Cl and extracted into ethylacetate (3×15 ml). Organic extract was washed with water and brine, dried under Na2SO4. Concentration gave 0.12 g of product as an oil (yield 90%).
