Procedure

The reaction was conducted according to the General Procedure by heating 2-methoxynaphthalene (79 mg, 0.5 mmol, 1 equiv.), KOt-Bu (19.6 mg, 0.18 mmol, 0.35 equiv.) and Et3SiH (319 microliters, 2.0 mmol, 4 equiv.) in 1 mL of tetrahydrofuran for 48 hours at 65° C. After aqueous work up, the crude reaction mixture was purified by chromatography on silica eluting with hexanes (isochratic) to obtain 79 mg (58%) of the title compound as colourless oil. 1H NMR (500 MHz, THF-d8) δ 7.84 (s, 1H), 7.78-7.73 (d, 1H), 7.73-7.68 (d, 1H), 7.38 (ddd, J=8.2, 6.8, 1.3 Hz, 1H), 7.27 (ddd, J=8.1, 6.8, 1.2 Hz, 1H), 7.15 (s, 1H), 3.90 (s, 3H), 1.01-0.90 (m, 9H), 0.68-0.53 (m, 6H). 13C NMR (126 MHz, THF-d8) δ 163.03, 137.88, 136.83, 130.10, 128.58, 128.09, 127.29, 127.21, 124.03, 104.57, 55.25, 8.02, 7.48. HRMS: [C17H24OSi] calculated 272.1608, measured 272.1596. The HSQC spectra of the 2-methoxynaphthalene and its reaction product are provided in FIG. 5.
