Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 2-allyl-3,5-dimethylphenol obtained in Reference Example 215 (935 mg, 5.77 mmol) in methanol (5 mL) was added concentrated hydrochloric acid (5 mL), and the mixture was heated under reflux under argon atmosphere for 20 hours. The reaction solution was neutralized by aqueous sodium hydroxide solution, which was extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was washed with a saturated sodium hydrogen carbonate solution, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, filtered, and then concentrated under reduced pressure to obtain the residue, which was purified by silica gel column chromatography (ethyl acetate:hexane=1:4) to obtain 472 mg (yield 50%) of the title compound.
