Methoxyl groups ortho to β-hydroxyethyl or γ-hydroxypropyl substituents in polymethoxybenzene derivatives were regioselectively demethylated with sodium thioethoxide in N,N-dimethylformamide.Methoxydihydrobenzofurans or methoxychromans were produced by cyclization of the monodemethylated β-hydroxyethyl or γ-hydroxypropyl derivatives, respectively.
