The residue was acidified with excess hydrochloric acid and extracted with dichloromethane containing a little tetrahydrofuran. The organic layer was washed with water, dried (Na2SO4), filtered and evaporated to give crude product. Crystallization from acetone-hexane provided 0.53 g of purified 2,6-dichloro-4-[2-(2-naphthalenyloxy)ethoxy]-alpha-oxobenzeneacetic acid as a colorless solid, mp 155°-156° C.
