To a mixture of 2-[2-[4-[(5-methyl-2-phenyl-4-oxazolyl)methoxy]benzyloxy]-1-naphthyl]acetonitrile (0.96 g), tetrahydrofuran (5 mL) and ethanol (15 mL) was added a 4N aqueous sodium hydroxide solution (7 mL), and the mixture was stirred with heating under reflux for 4.5 days. 1N Hydrochloric acid and water were added to acidify the reaction mixture, and the mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate-tetrahydrofuran. The organic layer was washed with saturated brine, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate and concentrated. The obtained residue was subjected to silica gel column chromatography to give crystals (0.52 g, 51%) of 2-[2-[4-[(5-methyl-2-phenyl-4-oxazolyl)methoxy]benzyloxy]-1-naphthyl]acetic acid from a fraction eluted with ethyl acetate-hexane (1:1, v/v). Recrystallization from ethyl acetate-hexane gave pale-yellow prism crystals. melting point: 187-188° C.
