The efficient synthesis of 3-, 4-, and 5-O-feruloylquinic acids starting from d-(−)-quinic acid is described. Esterification of suitably protected quinic acid derivatives with 3-(4-acetoxy-3-methoxyphenyl)-acryloyl chloride and subsequent hydrolysis of all the protecting groups afforded the title products in overall yields of 33%, 15%, and 45%, respectively, (from quinic acid).
