To the mixture was added water, and the mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate (twice). The organic layer was washed with 1N sodium hydroxide solution (4 times), water (three times) and saturated brine, and dried with magnesium sulfate. Under reduced pressure, the solvent was evaporated to give yellow oil of 6-propoxyethoxybenzofuran (1.50 g).
