HCID 16830Methyl 4-hydroxy-3-methoxy-cinnamate

Procedure

The preparation was effected analogously to Example 1 from 25 g (0.129 mol) of 4-hydroxy-3-methoxy-cinnamic acid and 180 ml of methanol with concentrated sulphuric acid as the catalyst. For purification, it was chromatographed on silica gel with dichloromethane/diethyl ether (19:1). This gave 21.78 g of methyl 4-hydroxy-3-methoxy-cinnamate as a pale yellow oil.
