The reaction mixture is evaporated, the residue dissolved in water (6 mL) and the solution washed twice with ethyl acetate (20 mL). The pH of the aqueous phase is adjusted to pH 1 by addition of 2 N hydrochloric acid and resulting solid is filtered and washed well with water to give 2-benzyloxy-4-phenylethynylbenzoic acid (0.6 g), m.p. 125-127° C. [Elemental analysis:- C,80.2; H,4.86%. Calculated:- C,80.5; H,4.91%].
