After stirring at room temperature for 50 min, 5.77 ml (7.73 mmoles) of 1.34 M methanolic sodium methoxide was added and stirring was continued for 2 hr, at room temperature. The resulting solution was acidifed with 1 N aqueous hydrochloric acid then poured into saturated brine and worked-up with ether in the usual manner. The crude, crystalline product (0.34g) was chromatographed on 20g of silica gel. Elution with 19:1 parts by volume toluene-ethyl acetate gave 0.311g (84.1%) of (S)-(+)-3,4-dihydro-6-hydroxy-2,5,7,8-tetramethyl-2H-1-benzopyran-2-carboxylic acid methyl ester as a colorless solid, mp 131-134°; [α]D25 -60.46° (c 3.88, CH3OH).
