Procedure

A 500 mL round bottom flask was charged with 5-(1-(2-fluoro-3-methoxyphenyl)propyl)-2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxane-4,6-dione 77.C (5.17 g, 16.7 mmol) and 10:1 DMF/water (80 mL). The pale yellow solution was stirred overnight at 90° C., cooled to room temperature, and diluted with ether. The combined organic layers were washed with water and brine, dried (MgSO4), and concentrated to afford 3-(2-fluoro-3-methoxyphenyl)pentanoic acid 77.D (3.44 g, 91.3% yield) as a yellow oil. The crude product was used without further purification.
