Abstract
The title compound, a key intermediate for preparing coenzyme Q analogues, was prepared in excellent yield by a reaction sequence starting from the commercially available 3,4,5-trimethoxybenzadehyde via Wolff–Kishner reduction, selective bromination, methoxylation and Blanc chloromethylation reaction.
