The mixture was poured into 0.5N HCl (600 mL) and extracted with diethyl ether (250 mL×2). The combined extracts were dried, filtered, concentrated, and purified by silica gel chromatography (1:0→17:3; hexanes:ethyl acetate) to give 1-[3-(cyclopentyloxy)-2-hydroxy-4-methoxyphenyl]ethanone: MS (ESI): 251.2.
