Procedure
To a stirred solution of methyl 2-(2,2,2-trifluoroethoxyphenylacetate (2 g, 8 mmol) from Step 1 above in DME (20 mL) was added aqueous LiOH (20 mL of a 1.0 M solution, 20 mmol). The solution was stirred at ambient temperature for 1 h. The solution was concentrated under reduced pressure to ~10 mL and 0.25 M aqueous citric acid (20 mL) was added. The precipitate was removed by filtration and dried under reduced pressure to give 2-(2,2,2-trifluoroethoxyphenylacetic acid as a crystalline solid (HPLC retention time=7.4 min (method E)).
