The reaction mixture was quenched with 1M HCl and extracted with ethyl acetate. The combined organic extracts were dried (Na2SO4) and concentrated in vacuo affording (2,4-Dichloro-6-morpholin-4-yl-pyrimidin-5-yloxy)-acetic acid as a white solid (515 mg, 97%). 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3): δ 4.59 (2H, s), 3.93-3.87 (4H, m), 3.81-3.75 (4H, m).
