Procedure

To a solution of 50 mg (0.12 mmol) of ethyl 4-(5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-3,5,5,8,8-pentamethyl-2-naphthylsulfonyl)benzoate (Compound 10) in 3.0 mL of tetrahydrofuran was added 1.0 mL of LiOH (1N aqueous solution). The solution was heated at 50° C. for 3 h, cooled to room temperature and concentrated in vacuo. The residue was diluted with brine, acidified using 10% HCl and extracted with ether (2×). The combined ether layers were dried (MgSO4), filtered, and the solvents were removed in vacuo to give the title compound as a white solid (45 mg, 98%):
