Procedure

To (±)-(7-methoxy-2,3-dihydro-1-benzofuran-2-yl)methyl 4-methylbenzenesulfonate (10.00 g, 0.030 mol) was added hydrogen bromide (20 mL, 30 wt. % in acetic acid) and the resulting solution was heated to 40° C. The reaction mixture was allowed to stir at 40° C. for 4 h. The reaction mixture was cooled to room temperature and was diluted with water (250 mL) and extracted with diethyl ether (3×200 mL). The combined organic extracts were washed with saturated sodium bicarbonate (3×300 mL), water (200 mL), and saturated aqueous sodium chloride (200 mL), were dried (magensium sulfate), and the solvent was removed in vacuo to provide a crude oil. Purification by flash column chromatography (silica, ethyl acetate:hexanes 1:3) provided 7.34 g (77%) of (±)-(7-hydroxy-2,3-dihydro-1-benzofuran-2-yl)methyl 4-methylbenzenesulfonate as white solid. Rf=0.31 (silica, ethyl acetate:hexanes 1:3); mp 122-125° C.; Anal. calcd. for C16H16O5S: C, 59.99; H, 5.03. Found: C, 59.8; H, 4.73.
