A 1 N solution of NaOH (7.6 mL; 7.6 mmol) was added dropwise to a solution of (4-cyanophenoxy)acetic acid ethyl ester B (1.55 g; 7.6 mmol) in MeOH (15 mL). After 1 h the solution was acidified with 1 N HCl (7.6 mL; 7.6 mmol) and evaporated. The residue was taken up with water (20 mL) and extracted with CHCl3 (2×30 mL). The organic phases were evaporated and the crude was purified by flash chromatography to give (4-cyanophenoxy)acetic acid C (0.97 g; 5.5 mmol) as a white solid. Yield 72%.
