The reaction mixture is cooled to ambient temperature and then the reaction is halted by the addition of 50 ml of a 2M hydrochloric acid solution. The medium is extracted with 250 ml of ethyl acetate. The solvents are evaporated and then the residue is filtered through a silica gel patch (2 cm): eluent heptane/ethyl acetate 8/2. After evaporation of the solvents, 5.55 g of orange oil are obtained. This oil is crystallized from pentane. 4.8 g of 3-butoxy-4-hydroxybenzaldehyde are obtained in the form of a brown solid after filtration.
