Procedure
A mixture of 3,4-dihydroxybenzaldehyde (4.14 g, 30 mmol), cyclopropylmethyl bromide (3.06 mL, 31.5 mmol), potassium carbonate (8.29 g, 60 mmol) in acetone (90 mL) is heated at 50 C overnight. After filtration, the solution is dried to a gum, which is dissolved in ethyl acetate, and washed with water. It is dried to an oil and then chromatographed to yield 0.42 g (7%) of the title compound as a white powder. MS (ESI) m/z 191.2 (M−H)−1.
