4-Hydroxybenzaldehyde → P-hydroxyl ethyl cinnaMate

To 20 g of p-hydroxybenzaldehyde and 32.5 g of monoethyl malonate were added 6 ml of pyridine and 0.2 ml of piperidine, then the mixture thus obtained was heated at 100° to 110° C. for 10 hours under stirring. The reaction mixture was then cooled, extracted with chloroform, and the chloroform layer was washed with an aqueous solution saturated with potassium hydrogen sulfite and water in this order, the chloroform extract was dried with anhydrous magnesium sulfate. The solvent was removed by evaporation and the residue thus obtained was crystallized from isopropyl ether-n-hexane to yield 25.2 g of ethyl 4-hydroxycinnamate. Light yellow indefinite form crystals. Melting point: 70°-71° C.
