For demethylation, a homogeneous mixture of 54.0 g (0.22 mol) of 3,5-dimethoxystilbene and 40.0 g (0.35 mol) of pyridine hydrochloride is heated at about 165° C. for 3 hours. The cooled, oily reaction mass is then introduced into 1.2 liters of 2N hydrochloric acid and the crude product is isolated by extraction with diethyl ether. Recrystallisation from toluene yields 3,5-dlihydroxystilbene in the form of a pale-yellow powder.
