実験手順

2-(4-Benzyloxy-2-formyl-phenoxy)-2-methyl-propionic acid ethyl ester (9.00 g, 26.3 mmol) in ethanol (250 mL) is treated with 5% Pd/C (1.25 g) and hydrogen (60 psi, rt, overnight). Additional 5% Pd/C (1.25 g) is added, and the reaction is continued for 6 h at 40° C. The mixture is filtered and concentrated to a tan oil (6.25 g). This oil contained 9 mol % of 2-(4-Hydroxy-2-hydroxymethyl-phenoxy)-2-methyl-propionic acid ethyl ester. 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl) δ 1.26 (t, 3H, J=7.3 Hz), 1.51 (s, 6H), 2.14 (s, 3H), 4.24 (q, 2H, J=7.3 Hz), 5.68 (brs, 1H), 6.47 (dd, 1H, J=3.4, 8.8 Hz), 6.59 (d, 1H, J=8.3 Hz), 6.60 (brs, 1H).
