Procedure

Part A. A 1-L flame-dried flask was charged with 130 mL of LiHMDS (130 mmol; 1.0 M in THF) and 410 mL of ethyl ether. The resulting solution was cooled to −78° C. and 2-acetylfuran (14 g, 12 m mmol) was added in one portion. After 5 min, di-tert-butyl oxalate was added dropwise over 1 h as a solution in 100 mL of ether. The resulting mixture was warmed to 23° C. over a period of 3 h and was maintained at rt for 20 h. The mixture was then filtered, and the resulting beige precipitate was washed with 100 mL of ether. The filter cake was dried in a vacuum oven for 1 h to afford lithium 1-tert-butoxy-4-(2-furyl)-1,4-dioxo-2-buten-2-olate (25 g, 83%) as a cream colored solid. 1H NMR (DMSO-d6) δ 7.75 (t, 1H), 6.96 (m, 1H), 6.56 (m, 1H), 3.34 (s, 2H), 1.46 (s, 9H).
