Reaction Steps

By following the procedure of Example ZA-6A and substituting methyl (E)-6-(1,3-dihydro-4-hydroxy-6-methoxy-7-methyl-3-oxoisobenzofuran-5-yl) -2,4-dimethyl-4-hexenoate with ethyl (E)-6-(4-methoxyethoxymethoxy-1,3-dihydro-6-methoxy-7-methyl-3-oxoisobenzofuran-5-yl)-2,2,4-trimethyl -4-hexenoate and compounds of Formula 109, prepared e.g, as described in Example ZA-12 and converted to compounds of Formula 112 as described in Part A above, there are obtained (E)-6-(4-methoxyethoxymethoxy-1,3-dihydro-6-methoxy-7-methyl-3-oxoisobenzofuran-5-yl)-2,2,4-trimethyl-4-hexenoic acid, m.p. 163-165 (hexane/ethyl acetate) and the corresponding compounds of Formula I-ZA-M2 as identified in the following table.
