2-[2-[4-[(5-Methyl-2-phenyl-4-oxazolyl)methoxy]benzyloxy]-3-pyridyl]acetic acid (0.20 g) was added to a mixture of a 1N aqueous potassium hydroxide solution (0.46 mL), methanol (5 mL) and tetrahydrofuran (5 mL) at 0° C., and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 1 hr. The reaction mixture was concentrated, and the residue was washed with diethyl ether to give crystals (0.19 g, yield 86%) of potassium 2-[2-[4-[(5-methyl-2-phenyl-4-oxazolyl)methoxy]benzyloxy]-3-pyridyl]acetate. Recrystallization from methanol-diethyl ether gave colorless prism crystals. melting point: 157-159° C.
