Versuchsvorschrift

Methyl 3-isopropyl-1-benzofuran-5-carboxylate (1.20 g, 5.51 mmol) is dissolved in MeOH (20 ml) and water (4 ml), treated drop-wise with 2N NaOH (3.3 ml, 6.6 mmol) and stirred at RT for 2 days, then at 40° C. for 4 h. The volatiles are removed in vacuo, the residue is dissolved in water (10 ml) and the pH is adjusted to 3 with concentrated HCl. The resulting precipitate is isolated via filtration and dried overnight to afford 1.08 g (97%) of 3-isopropyl-1-benzofuran-5-carboxylic acid as a white solid. MS (ESI−) for C12H12O3 m/z: 203.0 (M−H)−.
