Procedure
To a solution of 5-acetoxy-2-(phenylthiomethyl)-4,6,7-trimethyl-2,3-dihydrobenzofuran [1.2 g (3.5 mmol)] in methanol (8 ml) was added a solution of sodium hydroxide (0.6 g) in water (5 ml). The mixture was heated for one hour under reflux under argon atmosphere. The reaction mixture was, after cooling, diluted with water and, then, neutralized with 2N-HCl and followed by extraction with ethyl acetate. The extract solution was washed with water, and dried, then the solvent was distilled off. The residue was crystallized from isopropyl ether-hexane to obtain 5-hydroxy-2-phenylthiomethyl)-4,6,7-trimethyl-2,3-dihydrobenzofuran (Compound 3) (0.85 g).
