Conclusions
Acid hydrolysis of 4-(methoxycarbonyl)-5-(2′-hydroxyphenyl) proline ether ester is accompanied by structural changes of the original compound; when the phenol and methoxycarbonyl groups are trans the proline ring migrates from the ortho to the para position of the phenol ring; when cis the 5-C-N bond is cleaved to form 3-(coumaryl) alanine.
