Reaction Steps

To a solution of 3-(1,4-dioxaspiro[4.5]dec-8-ylmethoxy)phenol (536 mg) in acetone (9.6 mL) was added 1M hydrochloric acid (9.6 mL), followed by stirring at room temperature for 6 hours. The solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure, and then water was added to the residue, followed by extraction with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was washed with saturated brine and then dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate. The solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure to obtain 4-[(3-hydroxyphenoxy)methyl]cyclohexanone (446 mg).
