The reaction is stirred for 2 hours at 0°C., 18 hours at 25°C. then at reflux for six hours, cooled and poured into cold 1 N-hydrochloric acid (500 ml.), the organic layer is washed with water, saturated aqueous sodium chloride, dried over magnesium sulfate, then the solvent evaporated at reduced pressure. The crude methyl ester is hydrolyzed by treatment with potassium hydroxide (0.34 g., 0.005 mole) and methanol (20 ml.) at reflux for 1/2 hour, cooled and acidified with aqueous hydrochloric acid affording (1,3-dioxo-2-ethyl-4,5-dimethyl-6-indanyloxy)acetic acid which melts at 187°-193°C. after recrystallization from acetic acid-water.
