Procedure

A mixture of 2,5-dihydroxybenzaldehyde (9.81 g), ethyl iodide (13.29 g), anhydrous potassium carbonate (14.72 g) and N,N-dimethylformamide (100 mL) was stirred at room temperature for 1 hr. The reaction mixture was poured into water and extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was washed with saturated brine, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, and concentrated. The obtained residue was subjected to silica gel column a chromatography to give crystals (4.20 g, 36%) of 2-ethoxy-5-hydroxybenzaldehyde from a fraction eluted with ethyl acetate-hexane (1:4, v/v). Recrystallization from ethyl acetate-hexane gave pale-yellow prism crystals. melting point: 108-109° C.
