The resulting suspension was heated, oil bath temperature 75° C., for ˜3 hrs. to give a pale red solution. The resulting solution was allowed to cool and poured into ice/water (350 ml), to give a pale pink precipitate. The solids were removed by filtration and washed with water (600 ml) and hexane (200 ml) to give a pale pink powder. Dried in vacuo (40° C.), to give 1-(5-tert-butyl-2,4-dihydroxy-phenyl)-ethanone as a pale orange powder (28.8 g, 92%).
