Procedure
A mixture of methyl 4-(5-phenyl-3-isoxazolyl)benzoate (1.05 g), 6 M hydrochloric acid (10 ml) and acetic acid (20 ml) was heated under reflux for 5 hrs. After cooling, the reaction mixture was poured into water, and the crystals were washed with water to give 4-(5-phenyl-3-isoxazolyl)benzoic acid (0.95 g, yield 95%). Recrystallization from N,N-dimethylformamide-water gave colorless prism crystals. melting point: 297–298° C.
