Procedure

A mixture of 4-hydroxy-3-methoxyacetophenone (10 g, 59 mmol), K2 CO3 (10 g, 1.2 q) and 1,4-dibromo-2-butene (>95% trans, Aldrich, 18 g, 1.2 eq) in acetone (500 ml) was heated at 55° C. for 3 hours. At the end of the reaction, the solvent was concentrated. The crude product was extracted into dichloromethane (750 ml) and the insolubles were filtered; then the solution was concentrated again to an oil. Purification on a silica gel column (SiO2, 100 g, eluted with dichloromethane) yielded 7.25 g (40%) of white solid. Recrystallization from ether gave analytically pure
