The crude ester (915 mg) was taken up in dioxane (4 mL) and 20% aqueous sodium hydroxide (8 mL). After stirring at room temperature for 2 hours, the reaction mixture was diluted with ethyl acetate. The aqueous fraction was acidified to pH=2 with concentrated hydrochloric acid and was then extracted with ethyl acetate. The combined organic fractions were dried over sodium sulfate and concentrated to yield 2,2-dimethyl-3-(naphthalene-2-yl)propanoic acid (211 mg, 40% yield for two steps) as a white solid, which was used directly in the next step.
