After removing the solvent in vacuo, the residue was covered with ether, the mixture was acidified with dilute hydrochloric acid, and the ethereal phase was separated, washed with sodium bicarbonate and water. After distilling off the solvent, the solid residue was recrystallized from cyclohexane, to yield 6 gm (78% of theory) of colorless γ-(2'-fluoro-4-biphenylyl)-γ-butyrolactone, m.p. 74°-75° C.
