The regioselective replacement of the 4-methoxy group of 3,4,5-trimethoxybenzaldehyde dimethylacetal by an alkyl group under reductive electron-transfer conditions has been employed as a key step in a new synthesis of 2,5-dialkyl-1,3-dimethoxybenzenes via the corresponding 4-alkyl-3,5-dimethoxybenzaldehydes.
