Ethanol was removed under reduced pressure and the residue diluted with water (200 mL) and chilled to 0° C. Concentrated hydrochloric acid (˜150 mL) was slowly added to adjust pH to ˜2, while maintaining temperature below 10° C. and the mixture was stirred for 30 min. The precipitated solid was filtered, washed with water (100 mL) and petroleum ether (200 mL) and dried under vacuum at 60° C. to afford 1,5-dimethyl-3-phenyl-pyrrole-2,4-dicarboxylic acid (60 g, 91%) as a white solid.
