Procedure

4 ml. of formic acid are added over 20 minutes to a solution of 2.3 g. of 4-(2-propneyl)-2',4'-difluorobiphenyl, obtained by eliminating water from 4-(2-hydroxypropyl)-2',4'-difluorobiphenyl with polyphosphoric acid, in a mixture of 12 ml. of sulfuric acid and 8 ml. of trifluoroacetic acid. After 20 minutes more, the mixture is poured into water to give 3-(2',4'-difluoro-4-biphenylyl)butyric acid, m.p. 109°-110°.
