Reaction Steps

At ambient temperature, 36.35 g (238.8 mmol) of (3-methoxy-4-methylphenyl)-methanol and 207.6 g (2.4 moles/10 eq.) of manganese oxide are mixed into 730 mL of dichloromethane. Stirring is carried out at ambient temperature overnight, followed by filtration over Celite and rinsing with dichloromethane. After concentration of the combined filtrates, the desired product is obtained.
