Procedure

Acetic acid 1,1-diacetoxy-3-oxo-1λ5-ioda-2-oxa-indan-1-yl ester (Dess-Martin reagent) (549 mg, 1.293 mmoles) in dry dichloromethane was added to a solution of 4-hydroxymethyl-5-methyl-furan-2-carboxylic acid methyl ester (16) (200 mg, 1.176 mmoles) in dry dichloromethane (9 ml) with cooling to 0° C. under an argon atmosphere. After stirring for 20 minutes, the mixture was diluted with diethyl ether (40 ml) and was poured into saturated aqueous sodium bicarbonate (30 ml) containing sodium thiosulphate pentahydrate (4 g) and agitated vigorously for 5 minutes. The organic phase was washed with saturated aqueous sodium bicarbonate (40 ml), water (50 ml) and brine (50 ml) and dried. After removal of the solvent, the residue was purified by flash chromatography, using petrol/diethyl ether 4:1 v/v as eluent, to afford compound 157 (140 mg) as a white solid.
