A mixture of (2-methyl-5-{1-[4-methyl-2-(4-trifluoromethyl-phenyl)-thiazole-5-carbonyl]-piperidin-3-yl}-phenoxy)-acetic acid ethyl ester (146 mg, 0.26 mmol), potassium carbonate (71 mg, 0.52 mmol), methanol (10 mL) and water (2 mL) was heated at reflux for 3 h, cooled to room temperature and concentrated under reduced pressure. The resulting residue was taken up in water (50 mL), acidified with 1N aqueous hydrochloric acid and extracted with ethyl acetate (2×50 mL). The combined organic extracts were washed with saturated aqueous sodium chloride, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, filtered, concentrated under reduced pressure to yield 130 mg (94%) of (S)-(2-methyl-5-{1-[4-methyl-2-(4-trifluoromethyl-phenyl)-thiazole-5-carbonyl]-piperidin-3-yl}-phenoxy)-acetic acid as a white solid.
