Procedure
To a solution (Z)-ethyl 3-(4-(benzyloxy)-3,5-difluorophenyl)-2-ethoxyacrylate (680) (1.3 g, 3.59 mmol) in ethanol (25 mL) was added Pd/C (140 mg, 10% Degussa type). A balloon of hydrogen gas was added and the reaction was evacuated and back-filled with hydrogen three times. The reaction was stirred overnight at room temperature, was filtered through a pad of celite and concentrated in vacuo to give ethyl 3-(3,5-difluoro-4-hydroxyphenyl)-2-ethoxypropanoate (0.81 g) (681).
