Procedure

To a mixture of cyclopropyl-(2,6-dihydroxy-phenyl)-methanone (398 mg) and potassium carbonate (500 mg) in acetone (5 ml) was added bromoacetic acid ethyl ester (300 μl) at room temperature. The suspension was heated to reflux for 1.5 hours and diluted with ethyl acetate (10 ml), washed with diluted hydrochloric acid (5 ml) and brine (5 ml), dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, then concentrated in vacuo. The mixture was purified by silica gel column chromatography developed by hexane-ethyl acetate to give (2-cyclopropanecarbonyl-3-hydroxy-phenoxy)-acetic acid ethyl ester as a pale yellow solid (382 mg). EI-MS: m/z 264 (M+); 1H-NMR (CDCl3): δ 1.04-1.09 (2H, m), 1.23-1.29 (2H, m), 1.28 (3H, t, J=7.26 Hz), 2.26-2.35 (1H, m), 4.29 (2H, q, J=7.26 Hz), 4.70 (2H, s), 6.27 (1H, dd J=0.99 Hz, 8.25 Hz), 6.62 (1H, dd, J=0.99 Hz, 8.25 Hz), 6.41 (2H, d, J=8.25 Hz), 7.31 (1H, dd, J=8.25 Hz, 8.25 Hz), 12.89 (1H, s).
