Procedure

1 g of methyl 3-[2-(3,4-dimetoxyphenyl)-7-methoxy-3-methoxycarbonyl-2,3-dihydro -1-benzofuran-5-yl]prop-2-enoate, 10 mL of acetone and 2.5 mL of water were mixed and stirred to dissolve. Then, 3% NaOH (6 mL) was added to the mixture and stirred for 0.5 hr. After reaction completed, the mixture was acidified and purified by chromatography on silica gel column with a 1:2:0.8 V/V mixture of petroleum ether, ethyl acetate and acetic acid as eluent. After removing solvent, it gave 1.5 g yellow solid of 5-[(E)-2-carboxyethenyl]-2-(3,4-dimetoxyphenyl)-2,3-dihydro-7-methoxy-3-benzofurancarboxylic acid (IM2).
