Procedure
To a solution of lithium hydroxide (400 mg, 10.2 mmol) in tetrahydrofuran, menthol and water (20 mL, 3:1:1, V/V) was added methyl 4-(2-hydroxy-1-phenoxyethyl)benzoate (400 mg, 1.47 mmol). The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 1 hour. The mixture was quenched with 10% HCl (aqueous, 5 mL), extracted with dichloromethane and menthol (60 mL, 10:1), the combine organic layer was dried with anhydrous sodium sulfate, filtered and evaporated to give 4-(2-hydroxy-1-phenoxyethyl)benzoic acid (300 mg, 70%).
