Procedure
To a solution of obovatol (1 g) in methanol was added palladium chloride (PdCl2) (10 mg), followed by stirring at room temperature for 5 hours. After completion of the reaction, the organic layer containing the active material was collected and concentrated in a vacuum. The concentrate (1.1 g) was dissolved in methylene chloride (30 ml) and loaded onto a silica gel (Merck, Art No. 9385) so as to adsorb the active material thereonto. Purification through silica gel column chromatography eluting with a gradient of a mixture of ethylacetate and hexane from 10:90 to 20:80 afforded colorless 3-(4-((E)-prop-1-enyl)phenoxy)-5-((E)-prop-1-enyl)benzene-1,2-diol (0.91 g, yield 90%)
