Additional sodium hydroxide (20 ml, 1M) and dimethyl sulfate (15.0 ml, 158 mmol) were added and the resulting mixture was stirred at room temperature for 2 hours. The two phases were separated and the aqueous layer was extracted with dichloromethane twice. The combined organic extracts were washed with 1 M HCl, dried over magnesium sulfate and concentrated under vacuum. The crude material was purified by column chromatography (5:1 heptane/ethyl acetate) to give 2-hydroxy-7-methoxynaphthalene (2.1 g, 30%, 100% AUC HPLC): 1H NMR (300 MHz, CDCl3) δ 7.66-7.70 (m, 2H), 6.94-7.08 (m, 4H), 4.90 (s, 1H), 3.92 (s, 3H).
