1.6 g of benzyl 5-(3-ethoxy-2-ethoxy-3-oxo-1-propenyl)-2-methoxybenzoate was dissolved in 30 ml ethanol, 0.35 g of 10% palladium-carbon was added, and the mixture was stirred for 16 hours in a hydrogen atmosphere. The catalyst was filtered through Celite and the solvent was evaporated. Then, the residue was subjected to silica gel column chromatography, and from fractions eluted with hexane-ethyl acetate (2:1), 1.2 g of 5-(3-ethoxy-2-ethoxy-3-oxopropyl)-2-methoxybenzoic acid was obtained.
