Procedure

Methyl 2-ethyl-3,5-dihydroxyphenylacetate (2.0 g, 9.7 mmol) obtained in Example 7, Step 2 was suspended in boron trifluoride diethyl etherate (40 mL), and 3-hydroxy-4-methoxybenzoic acid (1.7 g, 11 mmol) was added thereto, followed by stirring at 80° C. for 5 hours. After cooling to room temperature, the reaction mixture was added dropwise to ice-cold water, and the resulting mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was washed successively with a saturated aqueous solution of sodium hydrogencarbonate and a saturated aqueous solution of sodium chloride, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, and then concentrated under reduced pressure. The resulting residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (ethyl acetate/hexane=1/4-9/1) to obtain methyl 2-ethyl-3,5-dihydroxy-6-(3-hydroxy-4-methoxy-benzoyl)phenylacetate (2.2 g, 65%).
