Abstract
The preparation and reactions of 2-furylmagnesium bromide and 3-methyl-2-furylmagnesium bromide (4b) have been studied. Activated 90% magnesium–copper alloy was used to prepare the Grignard reagents. The reaction of 1-bromo-3-methyl-2-butene with 4b gave rosefuran in a 40% yield; that of geranyl bromide with 4b gave sesquirosefuran in a 26% yield.
