330 mg of methyl 2-phenylthio-2-(3-phenoxyphenyl)propionate obtained in Example 8 was dissolved in 2 ml of acetic acid and the solution was heated while refluxing for 1 hour in the presence of 300 mg of zinc powder. After allowing the reaction mixture to cool, it was diluted with ethyl acetate and the remaining zinc powder was removed by filtration. The filtrate was concentrated to obtain methyl 2-(3-phenoxyphenyl)propionate in a quantative yield.
