Procedure
To a solution of methyl(4-cyano-3-trifluoromethoxyphenyl)acetate (2.15 g, 8.3 mmol) in 1:1 THF:MeOH (10 mL each) was added LiOH—H2O (0.42 g, 10.0 mmol) in water (30 mL). The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 12 hours at which time the starting ester was consumed by TLC (25% ethyl acetate/hexanes). The mixture was concentrated in vacuo and acidified to pH<3 by dropwise addition of 12N HCl. The acidified solution was then extracted with ethyl acetate, dried over sodium sulfate and concentrated in vacuo to yield the crude title product. LC-MS (IE, m/z): 246 [M+1]+. 1H-NMR (500 MHz, CDCl3) δ ppm 3.81 (s, 2H), 7.39 (d, J=7.5 Hz, 1H), 7.40 (s, 1H), 7.75 (d, J=7.5 Hz, 1H).
