The mixture was cooled to room temperature, and water (50 ml) was added. The mixture was extracted with methylene chloride and dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate. The solvent was evaporated, and the residue was purified by recrystallization from n-hexane/ethyl acetate (=1/1) to give the desired compound 4-methoxy-3-isochromanone (6.00 g, 74.2%) as white crystals.
