O-alkylation of 2-(4-methoxyphenyl)-5-hydroxy-3-[1,3-phenylene-bis(4- nitrobenzoate)]-2,3-dihydrobenzo[b]furan results in the unexpected hydrolysis of the nitrobenzoate esters, transfer of a 4-nitrobenzoic acid group to the 5-hydroxyl group and double alkylation of the newly formed 3,5-diphenol moiety. A range of alkyl halides can be used and give access to O-alkyl analogues of -viniferin.
