Procedure

(4-Benzyloxy-phenoxy)-tert-butyl-diphenyl-silane (32.5 g, 67 mmol) was dissolved in ethanol. 10% Palladium on carbon (3.0 g) was added followed by cyclohexene (100 mL). The mixture was heated at reflux for 16 hours. The reaction was cooled to room temperature and filtered through Celite. The solvent was removed in vacuo to yield the title compound (22.0 g, 63 mmol).
