Triethylsilane (2.8 ml) was added to 4-tert-butyl-5-hydroxy-2-octylbenzofuran (300 mg, 1.0 mmol) and, then, trifluoroacetic acid (1.4 ml) was added dropwise under ice cooling. The mixture was stirred first at 0° C. for 15 min, then at room temperature for 1 h. Thereafter, the mixture was poured into ice water and subjected to extraction with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was washed with a saturated aqueous solution of sodium hydrogen carbonate, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate and concentrated. The concentrate was purified by silica gel chromatography (chloroform) to afford 4-tert-butyl-5-hydroxy-2-octyl-2,3-dihydrobenzofuran [252 mg (yield, 83%)] as a colorless oil.
