5-Hydroxy-2-methyl-benzoic acid (2 g, 13.3 mmol) was dissolved in tetrahydrofuran (40 ml). The reaction mixture was cooled to 0° C. and sodium hydride (60% dispersion in mineral oil) (1.8 g, 39.5 mmol) was added portionwise. Chloro(methyloxy)methane (4 ml, 52 mmol) was added. The reaction mixture was stirred for 30 min at 0° C. The mixture was poured into ice and extracted with ethyl acetate, two phases were separated and the organic layer was dried over Na2SO4 and evaporated under vacuum to give the crude product as a yellow oil. To this material, dissolved in THF (20 ml), cooled at 0° C., LiAlH4 1M in THF (15 ml, 15 mmol) was added dropwise and the reaction mixture was stirred at 0° C. for 30 min. After this time the reaction mixture was poured into ice and diluted with 60 ml of ethyl acetate. Phases were separated, the organic phase was dried over Na2SO4 and evaporated under vacuum to afford a colorless oil that was purified by flash chromatography (Biotage system) on silica gel using a 100 g SNAP column and cyclohexane to cyclohexane/ethyl acetate 75:25 as eluents affording the title compound (1.9 g) as a colorless oil.
