Regioselective preparation of 4-formyl-3,5-dimethoxyphenol, an intermediate in the synthesis of the PAL solid-phase peptide synthesis handle

Article abstract of DOI:10.1080/00397919108020808

An improved procedure for preparation of 4-formyl-3,5-dimethoxyphenol is reported. The principal advantages of the new procedure over previous preparations are complete regioselectivity and higher yield.
