Методика

To a solution of 35.5 g of (E)-3-(2-hydroxy-phenyl)-2-methyl-acrylic acid ethyl ester in 600 ml of ethanol, a solution of 10.66 g of potassium hydroxide in 500 ml of water was dropped in. After refluxing for 5 hours, another 5.0 g of potassium hydroxide was put in and the mixture was refluxed for another 19 hours. Then the reaction mixture was cooled down, diluted with ether and washed to pH 4 with HCl 2N and water. The organic phase was dried, filtered and evaporated to dryness. The resulting colourless crystals were not further purified.
