Procedure
A degassed solution of crude (2,6-dimethyl-4-triisopropylsilanyloxyphenyl)-(4-methoxymethoxyphenyl)methanol (12.0 g, 26.84 mmol) and Pd/C (1.2 g) in EtOAc/HOAc (19/1) was stirred under an atmosphere of hydrogen (1 atm) at r.t. After 5 h, the catalyst was filtered through a pad of Celite, rinsed with ethyl acetate and the combined filtrates concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by column chromatography on silica gel (ethyl acetate-hexanes; 1:9) to afford 4-(2,6-dimethyl-4-triisopropylsilanyloxybenzyl)-methoxymethoxybenzene (4.0 g, 41.5% for two steps): 1H NMR (300 MHz, CDCl3): δ 6.93 (s, 4H), 6.63 (s, 2H), 5.16 (s, 2H), 3.94 (s, 2H), 3.50 (m, 3H), 1.58 (s, 6H), 1.29 (m, 3H), 1.13 (m, 18H). TLC conditions: Uniplate silica gel, 250 microns; Mobile phase=ethyl acetate-hexanes (1:19); Rf=0.80.
