Reaction Steps

6-Methylbenzofuran (15 g) was dissolved in methanol (200 ml) containing 0.5 g of 10% palladium on carbon. This solution was shaken on a Paar hydrogenator under hydrogen at 40 psi. When hydrogen uptake was complete, the solution was filtered through Celite and the ethanol evaporated to yield 6-methyl-2,3-dihydrobenzofuran.
