Procedure
A solution of methyl 4-[(E)-3-(imidazol-2-yl)prop-1-en-1-yl]-2-(4-fluorophenyl)benzoate (1.37 g; 4 mmol) in methanol (20 ml) was treated at reflux for 4 hours with a solution of sodium hydroxide (0.32 g; 8 mmol) in water (24 ml). After evaporation to dryness the residue was acidified at pH 6 with 12N HCl. The resulting solid was triturated with water and subsequently with ether to give 4-[(E)-3-(imidazol-2-yl)prop-1-en-1-yl]-2-(4-fluorophenyl)benzoic acid. Yield: 46%
