Vorschrift

A mixture of 23 g of 1-(2-hydroxy-5-tetradecylphenyl)ethanone, 5 g of 5% palladium on carbon catalyst, 10 ml of concentrated hydrochloric acid, 100 ml of water and 100 ml of glacial acetic acid was warmed to 50° C. and then hydrogenated in a Parr apparatus for 24 hours. This mixture was filtered, the solvent removed ad the residue dissolved in ether. The ether solution was washed with water, then a small amount of dilute aqueous sodium bicarbonate and dried. The residue was purified by HPLC, giving 16 g of the desired compound, mp 45.5°-46.5° C.
