Vorschrift

A mixture of methyl 2-formyl-5-methoxyphenoxyacetate (27.7 g), 1,8-diazabicyclo[5.4.0]-7-undecene (40.8 g) and toluene (200 ml) was heated under refluxing conditions for 4 hours. The reaction mixture was concentrated under reduced pressure; after 6N hydrochloric acid was added, the residue was extracted with ethyl acetate. After the ethyl acetate layer was washed with water and dried (MgSO4), the solvent was distilled off; 10% hydrochloric acid-methanol (30 ml) was added to the residue, followed by heating at 70° to 80° C. for 4 hours. The reaction mixture was concentrated under reduced pressure; water was added, followed by extraction with ethyl acetate. After the ethyl acetate layer was washed with water and dried (MgSO4), the solvent was distilled off; the residue was subjected to silica gel column chromatography. From the fraction eluted with chloroform-hexane (1:2, v/v), methyl 6-methoxybenzofuran-2-carboxylate (14.3 g, 57%) was obtained, which was then recrystallized from dichloromethane-isopropyl ether to yield colorless prisms having a melting point of 97° to 98° C.
