Procedure
Stir a mixture of 3-(4-methoxyphenyl)-dihydro-furan-2-one (0.98 g), rhodium on carbone (5%, 0.98 g) and ethanol (50 mL) on a hydrogenation parr shaker at 60 psi, 60° C. for 18 hours. Remove the reaction from the parr shaker and filter the mixture through celite, concentrate the filtrate to afford 0.92 g (90%) of the title compound.
