After cooling to room temperature, the mixture is poured over ice (100 ml). Toluene (100 ml) is added and the mixture transferred to a separatory funnel. The aqueous phase is brought to a pH of 1 with 3 N HCl. The organic phase is separated and the aqueous phase re-extracted with toluene (100 ml). The combined organic solution is dried (MgSO4) and concentrated under high vacuum (35-50 mbar), on a rotovap, taking care not to warm above 50°. Upon crystallization from Et2O/hexane, 5-methyl-2-(2′,4′-dichloro-6′-methylanilino)phenylacetic acid is obtained as a tan solid, m.p. 137-141°.
