In an autoclave, 4-hydroxy-4-methyl-5-propargyl-2-cyclopentenone (3 g) and water (400 ml) were charged, and the resultant mixture was stirred at 150° C. for 6 hours in a nitrogen atmosphere. After cooling, sodium chloride (50 g) was added to the reaction mixture, the resulting mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate. The extract was concentrated under reduced pressure and purified on column chromatography to give 2-propargyl-3-methyl-4-hydroxy-2-cyclopentenone (2.7 g). Yield, 90% nD21 1.5148.
