Description: Technical field The present invention relates to novel hydronaphtho [2,3-c] -furan derivatives being preparative intermediates of himbacine, which exhibits potent and selective antagonism against muscarine M 2 receptor and is expected for the use as a therapeutic drug of Arzheimer's disease, and process for preparing the same. Background technologies Himbacine is a piperidine alkaloid, which was isolated from Galbulimima baccata being one species of pinaceous plant and the structure of which was determined in 1956, and, as the structural characteristics thereof, three points of condensation of 5-membered lactone ring to thermodynamically stable transdecalin ring in cis configuration, eight asymmetric centers including four internuclear hydrogens, and further binding of 3-cyclic portion with piperidine ring via trans double bond can be mentioned. In recent years, the senile dementia represented by Alzheimer type dementia has posed a significant problem socially and a substantial therapeutic drug therefore is desired earnestly. As one of approaches, from a phenomenon of decreased function of central cholinergic nerve in demential patients, development of therapeutic drugs based on so-called "choline hypothesis" is being advanced actively. Roughly classifying them, it is possible to divide into four below. Namely, they are (1) inhibitor of taking-in of choline, (2) inhibitor of acetylcholinesterase, (3) activator for synthesizing choline acetyltransferase and (4) compound acting on muscarine receptor (muscarine M 1 against or M 2 receptor antagonist). It has become clear recently that the himbacine exhibits potent and selective antagonistic action on M 2 receptor that is considered to suppress the release of nerve terminal acetylcholine, hence the potential as an antidemential drug has been found. As described, the himbacine is a globally noteworthy compound from two points of potent activity and interesting chemical structure and, in recent years, its syntheses are reported by some groups. Thereamong, overall syntheses having intramolecular Diels-Alder reaction as a key reaction in all cases have been accomplished by groups of Kozikowski et al and Chackalamannil et al (Kozikowski, A.P. et al, J. Am. Chem. Soc., 1995, 117, 9369. Chackalamannil, S. et al, J. Am. Chem. Soc., 1996, 118, 9812). With these processes using intramolecular Diels-Alder reaction, however, there are problems of not only necessity for passing through troublesome processes in the synthesis of its skeleton, but also difficult synthesis of affinous compounds that become important for aiming at improved activity and decreased side effect. While, if using intermolecular Diels-Alder reaction, required constitutional units can be synthesized separately and each can be combined arbitrarily to react, thereby leading to easy synthesis of affinous compounds. However, it is the status quo that the synthesis of himbacine having such intermolecular Diels-Alder reaction as a key reaction has not yet been accomplished.

To the reaction mixture were added 10ml of water to stop the reaction, which was diluted with 20ml of saturated brine and extracted with ether(10mlx3). The organic layer was dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, filtered and solvent was distilled off. The residue was purified by means of silica gel column chromatography(hexane:ethyl acetate=9:1, then 1:1) to obtain 145.0mg(yield 45%) of coupling resultant as a mixture of diastereomer together with 111.0mg(yield 55%) of starting material (1S,3S.,3aS,4R,4aS,8aR,9aS)-1-methoxy-3-methyl-4-(phenylsulfonyl)methyl-dodecahydronaphtho[2,3-c]furan. The 1 H NMR(400MHz, CDCl 3 ) spectrum of this compound showed signals of complicated mixture, but, since four signals of δ 1.46(9H,s), δ 3.34(3H,s),δ 7.90-8.04(3H,m) and δ 7.52-7.68(2H,m) could be identified, the inventors assumed this as a coupling resultant. To 333.9mg of said coupling resultant in 14ml of methanol solution were added 5.96g of sodium amalgam(5%) and 1.08g of disodium hydrogenphosphate at room temperature under stirring, and the mixture was stirred for 2.5 hours. To the reaction mixture were added 10ml of water to stop the reaction and solvent was distilled off under reduced pressure. The residue was diluted with 20ml of saturated brine, which was extracted with ether(10mlx3). The organic layer was dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, filtered and solvent was distilled off.
