Procedure

To a solution of 6-[3-(4-fluoro-phenyl)-5-methyl-isoxazol-4-ylmethoxy]-nicotinic acid methyl ester (1.4 g, 4.2 mmol) (538 mg, 1.1 mmol) in THF (5 mL) was added a solution of lithium hydroxide monohydrate (94 mg, 2.2 mmol) in water (5 mL) and methanol (1 mL) added and the resulting mixture stirred at room temperature overnight. The mixture was acidified to pH 4 with HCl (25%, 3 drops) and methanol (2 drops) added. A gum began to form and the mixture was cooled at 0° C. for 1.5 h and then the aqueous layer decanted off. Trituration with diethylether and hexane afforded the title compound (1.1 g, 78%) which was obtained as a white solid. MS: m/e=327.3 [M−H]−.
