Procedure
To a solution of ethyl 2-(4-chlorophenylamino)-2-methylpropanoate (1.2 g, 4.96 mmol) in THF (5 mL) and MeOH (2 mL), was added aqueous sodium hydroxide (3.97 g, 9.93 mmol). The mixture was heated at 50° C. for 3 h, cooled to rt, concentrated, and then neutralized to pH=3. The mixture was extracted with EtOAc, and the combined organic extracts were washed with brine, dried over Na2SO4, and concentrated to give 3-(4-chlorophenylamino)-3-methylbutanoic acid (0.96 g, 91% yield) as a yellow oil.
