A mixture of 3.3 g of (E)-4-(6-hydroxyhexyloxy)-4′-(tetrahydropyran-2-yloxy)stilbene (C), 0.6 g of palladium hydroxide, 34 ml of cyclohexene and 50 ml of ethanol was refluxed for 16 hours. The cooled mixture was filtered over celite and evaporated. 2.2 g of 4-{2-[4-(6-Hydroxy-hexyloxy)-phenyl]-ethyl}-phenol (L, 86%) was obtained after dissolution in 600 ml of dichloromethane, two extractions with 50 ml of water, drying over magnesium sulphate and evaporation.
