Procedure

To a stirred solution of 5-bromo-3-furaldehyde, dimethyl acetal (1.26 g., 5.7 mmol) in 10 ml dry tetrahydrofuran at 78° under argon was added t-butyllithium (9.69 mmol in pentane), followed by the subsequent addition of trimethylsilyl chloride (1.36 g., 12.54 mmol). After two hours the reaction was quenched with a 10% ammonium chloride solution and the organic portion was washed with 5% sodium bicarbonate, water, saturated sodium chloride solution, dried over magnesium sulfate, filtered and concentrated to give a yellow oil. Purification by flash chromatography (10% ether/pet. ether) yielded the desired aldehyde.
