Procedure

n-Butyl lithium (a 1.6M solution in hexane; 0.56 ml, 0.94 mmol) was added dropwise to a solution of (2-naphthyl)propyl tributylstannylmethyl ether (437 mg, 0.89 mmol), prepared as in Example 3, in tetrahydrofuran (5 ml) at -78° under argon. After 5 minutes, a solution of 5-trimethylsilyl-3-furaldehyde (150 mg, 0.89 mmol) in tetrahydrofuran (1 ml) was added. Stirring was continued at -78° for 2 hours and at room temperature for 1 hour. The mixture was quenched with water and extracted with ethyl ether. Evaporation of the dried (magnesium sulphate) extracts gave an oil, which was flash chromatographed on silica using 30% ethyl ether/hexane. The title alcohol was obtained as a colorless oil.
