The solvents were evaporated and the residue partitioned between ammonium chloride solution (sat., aq., 20 mL) and ethyl acetate (2×30 mL). The combined organic extracts were dried over magnesium sulfate, filtered, and concentrated under vacuum to give methyl 2-hydroxy-3-(propan-2-yloxy)benzoate (123c, 1.24 g, 93% yield) as a colorless liquid.
