Procedure

88% Formic acid (90 ml) and 30% hydrogen peroxide (3.17 ml) were added to 4-methoxy-1-cyclopentene thus obtained, and the mixture was stirred overnight at room temperature. The reaction mixture was concentrated under reduced pressure, and a 35% aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide was added to the residue to alkalify the reaction mixture, followed by stirring at 50° C. for 10 minutes. The reaction mixture was cooled to room temperature and extracted with ethyl acetate to dry the organic layer over anhydrous magnesium sulfate. The solvent was distilled off, and the residue was purified by column chromatography on silica gel (methanol:methylene chloride=1:19) to obtain the title compound (1.21 g).
