Reaction Steps

115 g 4-hydroxy-phenylacetic acid ethyl ester is hydrogenated in a mixture of 10 ml one molar sodium ethylate solution and 350 ml ethanol for 72 hours at 160° C. and 200 bar using Raney-Nickel. The preparation is subsequently evaporated and the remaining oil is distilled in a high vacuum. 76.4 g 4-hydroxycyclohexane-acetic acid ethyl ester is obtained with a boiling point of 120°-121° C./2 mm Hg. TLC (mobile solvent: dichloromethane/methanol 9:1). Rf=0.8.
