Reaktionsschritte

A solution of 3,4,5-trimethoxybenzaldehyde (1.0 g, 5.0 mmol) in THF (50 mL) was stirred at 0° C. Sodium acetylide (18% w.t. slurry in xylene, 1.63 g, 6.1 mmol) was added via syringe. The reaction mixture was stirred overnight at room temperature and quenched by water. It was then extracted with EtOAc (30 mL×3). The combined organic layers were washed with brine, dried over anhydrous MgSO4, filtered, and concentrated to give a crude product, which was purified by flash column chromatography eluting with EtOAc/n-hexane (1:2) to afford 1-(3,4,5-trimethoxyphenyl)prop-2-yn-1-ol as a white solid (815 mg, 72%).
