Reaction Steps

A mixture of 2-(p-methoxybenzoyl)-3-methyl-4-benzyloxy-7-propylbenzofuran (0.10 gm, 0.24 mmole) in ethanol was hydrogenated in a Parr hydrogenator in the presence of 10% palladium on charcoal at 40 psi for a period of 7 hours. The catalyst was filtered off, washed with some ethanol, and the filtrate was concentrated in vacuo to yield 2-(p-methoxybenzyl)-3-methyl-4-hydroxy-7-propylbenzofuran.
